5:37 Jungkook said he filmed the mirror/glass version separately, so that’s him in the foreground and the background. Unfortunately shooting sketches are sometimes light in details, as parts of them end up in separate paid content called memories. As for cgi, please ignore anyone being unreasonable about you mentioning cgi. Too many young fans take offence for no reason, when cgi is a great tool to that can be used.
Yup. 9:58 on this vid, where they reacted and commented themselves. I wonder if new ARMYs know these life-saving accounts back in the days! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SdHl13XIKoI.html&si=EnSIkaIECMiOmarE
BTW - ANY videos about the technical side of shooting an MV - or just production in general, I'm sure we'll all be down with !! I absolutely love watching your breakdowns.. it just amplifies to me the amount of work that goes into some of these shoots. I think we laymen take for granted just how hard the crew work and it's nice to showcase them whenever there is an opportunity. Thank you !
Anyone saying they don't ever use green screen/cgi has never watched a shooting sketch or is just lying. That being said, 99% of the time thinking they could never possibly ever ends up oh yes they can and absolutely did tho. 🙃😂
A easy way to put it is that they use practical effects as much as they can. If it's not possible or it's too expensive, only then they go with digital means
4:40 It isn't explained in the making but Jungkook said, on their reaction at the mv, that they filmed his back separately and edited it there. I watched so many reactions waiting for someone to notice this impressive part and you are the only one who did. 👍
I like your point that there's nothing wrong with CG... there are just different ways to accomplish things. BTS responded to criticism of their music videos having too much CG (which is probably why some armies are defensive about this)... by putting out a video that is incredibly and blatantly animated. (It's Idol, I don't think you've seen it yet, it's chaotic AF.) I really appreciate how you point out things I know nothing about! I learn a lot from your videos and love the way you share your expertise with us. Personally, I think the emphasis on physical sets etc really makes the moments when they use other techniques feel special. I think I mentioned it in another comment, but I've started watching stuff from another BigHit group, TXT. They do magical concepts and have been using projection mapping rather than CGI - which is just a super cool choice. I'm fascinated by it.
Idol was a MASTERPIECE in more than one way. It has the trolling/savagery from the boys on the topic of CGI/CG (going all out), wordplay, general roastery of shit talkers and haters, and bringing absolute A Game on the double meaning behind the graphics, lyrics, and words/grammar.
Love that your foot is tapping. 😉 I think people that say BTS never do CGI are doing them a disservice. It is not that BTS never use CG but that we are amazed that so much of what they do is “in camera work”. They don’t go the easy route and and rely on CGI all the time. They work extra hard and creatively to provide ARMY with the highest quality MVs.
I’ve seen a RU-vid video of behind the scenes of this music video. I suggest you see if it’s still on RU-vid. Jimin & JK were on wires & were lifted up in the scene with Suga rapping. Cars on fire & exploding were real as well. Big Hit goes all out on the making of BTS’ music videos.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year Jeff and the Orig Family. I love when you watch the music videos then the behind the scenes to see how they do it. I like watching you get all excited. Actually BTS does use CGI it’s green screen that they rarely ever use. They want their videos to look as realistic as possible. Keep the reaction coming! Borahae 💜🫰
😂don't be afraid...BTS use some CG works for some MVs too.....we know it.... we're not gonna offended....it's normal to get such a idea....Armies are understanble....Armies won't pick a fight until you mistreat BTS....coz we respect BTS a lot....what i wanna say is don't be afraid to say that you think that was CG....they use CG too....after watching behind the scenes you'll know what is real set and what is CG!!! So that's okay
OMG thank you for figuring out the "mirror"--I could never figure it out. And, yes, I've always loved the camera work in that scene and the work BTS is doing to be in the right positions. Reminds me of the MV for "Save ME".
Happy Holidays! Jeff , thanks for all of the technical insights. I always enjoy learning how a scene was filmed to get the effect(s) seen. I am really enjoying experiencing your journey! Mic Drop is the song/mv that sent me down the rabbit hole to the land of ARMY. Journey on... 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
About the part with Jungkook that you were trying to figure out. Jungkook mentioned that they took a video of him doing that part. Because he had to come in early to the shoot for them to do it. So they just projected the video of him on the "mirror" and because they tend to do everything the same when it comes to dancing parts over and over it matched pretty well.
Mic Drop is BTS' response to their haters with a little flexing in the side...spitting facts lol...with Suga's epic lines... "tasteless ratatouille" & "sue it" 🤭✌️💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥
to my knowledge, the "no CGI" thing is mostly related specifically to Fake Love, where almost everything is practical, there's only i think 3 minor instances of CG (phone turning to sand, flower petals floating up from/around JK during the interlude, the fire in Yoongi's room being made bigger (fire WAS there just smaller))
please ignore those no cg comments, it's perpetuated misconception, as if good cg isn't a lot of hard work just like building sets. we know bts do use cgi, i think on mv (not the kinetic manifesto, the other one) is an example of good cg use on their part (with still mostly real sets).
Please watch and react to The MOST BEAUTIFUL LIFE GOES ON: A STORY OF BTS by Rice Squad...was the first video I watched about BTS journey, struggles, and introduction to BTS. It was so helpful. It gave me so much information not just about BTS but also gave a glimpse on the Kpop as a whole. And it is already in English!!! It is so helpful.
I would love to watch your idea of re-creating some of these tricks such as the high speed camera one! Your take on camera technology is really cool and a refreshing type of reaction! Love it! And your Ateez ones as well!
That people *still* persist in telling *professional video directors and filmographers* that BTS uses _no_ CG or green screen.... 😬🙄 Yes, BigHit's directors used practical effects as much as possible when they had a lower budget, but that wasn't because it was a matter of pride to do so. Starting in 2017 with DNA, it was open season for special effects. Please put this issue down, ARMY, along with "being bad at lip syncing", singing live, backing tracks, auto tune, plastic surgery, and every other bizarre hater criticism you feel like you have to snap back at. 🙏🙏🙏
Some Army need common sense. Of course some of BTS MV have CGI. And it shows the hard work of the production. They use it with parsimony and efficiency. Thanks for your input. 💜💜💜
I appreciate your reaction and analysis.; You honestly sound like me with the questions and analyzing how they could have done something. You are VERY cool. I look forward to watching more of your videos. You have a new subscriber 😊 be well!
People who say there is little to no cg are just ignorant and have a weird bias against cg. Almost all of BTS' music video has a little bit of post production cg or digital cleaning and enhancements, but it get's overshadowed by their practical effects because its just simply very impressive. For example, the fire explosion in Fake Love. There was real fire on set, and post production enhancement to make the fire look bigger. It would be extremely dangerous if they actually set off a fire that size on site. There is nothing wrong with pointing out any cg (whether its true or not) because cg doesn't always mean lazy or low effort.
there is CG in a few. BUT when they use it it's super obvious. You might enjoy the MV Save me. and the behind the scenes for the MV as it's one camera one take. ( They it did several times, but no edits, It's very cool)
Thank you for your reaction. Love your input and love BTS. You need to react to Dimash Kudaibergen singing Stranger or SOS or Sinful Passion. You will not regret it. Definitely the greatest singer I have ever heard.
Mic Drop was inspired by Obama's State of the Union address where he mic dropped at the end of it. Haters gonna hate but I don't have energy or time for them. I love the meaning behind it. Also love to the camera guy on that one rotating shot. I'm totally fine with CG when it's not overdone or overused. Thanks for the reacts!! 💜
I enjoy so much your reactions! Their crew or the crews that shoot their videos are top professional people indeed! And so creative as well... My fav part is the result of the rope thing with Jimin and JK hanging and bouncing. And the mics dropping at the end too. 😊💜
I love their behind the scenes of everything, MVs, award shows, concerts - get to see what it is like from their perspective. Enjoy your reactions and explanations, borahae!
You should just create a standard advisory graphic that looks like the parental warning on old CD packaging and keep that on your reactions! WARNING! I PAUSE OFTEN! BE ADVISED! I 💜your pauses for what it's worth!
just started watching your reaction vids. it's nice, no worries on the pausing :) just for the whole idea of the video so you can link the scenes, they were interrogated, there are parts inside the prison, then the group of people in black came, then they are gone and then found outside, having police cars and ambulances burning - which means they got away with it. MIC DROPPED.
Your understanding of videos that address their treatment by the press, the establishment and the public, and when they address haters (depicted as black hooded figures in multiple videos including this one where the haters are also the press, or Not Today where the haters becomes ARMY by the end and are in ranks behind them) would be greatly aided by a better understanding of how the K-pop industry usually always worked. BTS came up outside of that industry. Great effort was put into suppressing them, preventing them from performing, cutting out their performances, organized hate campaigns, slandering them with unfounded accusations like of plagiarism, “the black wave,” trying to financially crush them to then do a hostile buyout of their company, so they could muzzle and bench them (as has been done to other groups) personal attacks and trying to emotionally destroy them so they disband (which was almost successful) death threats which shut down concerts and much more. There is a reason ARMY is protective of them and they talk about haters and critics in some of their music. They had no big, powerful label and the accompanying established stars of those labels for protection and mentoring as most groups do. They had little budget for advertising and were mistreated by the press, the idol shows, and openly bullied on air by variety show hosts who later admitted to doing so under corporate pressure. They wrote their own music from the start and controlled much about their own lives and schedules, unlike most groups. They also were fearless about taking huge risks with their hard hitting content like sharing mental health struggles and punching upwards at things like societal ills and government corruption when they were still a small and bullied band, like the commentary on the government built into the visuals of Spring Day. No other K-pop group would touch such subjects before BTS. No other group also had their level of artistry and depth, their genius for lyrics and visual storytelling, or a through line of multiple layers of storytelling from song to song and album to album of both fictional and metaphorical and personal growth storylines.

I also recommend this animated music video for an emotional depiction of their 7 years of struggle and how they feel their fans saved them and lifted them up. You see each member moving through the sets of previous music videos/eras for the band. They are each alone, unhappy, struggling, in harsh surroundings that look desolate and hostile, attacked, chased, drowning, their voices muted by cancelled shows and cut performances, etc, facing the dreaded black wave (when crowds turn off their lights at award and other shows and remain dark and silent to show their hatred) and breaking a mirror (7 years of bad luck.) Then the gather on the Spring Day set, in the dark and alone, in the cold of winter, but together as 7, huddled around the fire of their music and wishing spring would come. Then things change. m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7UWBYJjuIL0.html
If you have any remaining questions about CGI stuff or how stuff was done, they talk about some things in this reaction where BTS sees the finished MV for the first time. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SdHl13XIKoI.html
😩 MISSED YOUR NOTIFICATION ☺️💜🤩💐! JUST WANT TO SAY! THANK YOU 💕 GUYS FOR ALL THE LOVE AND RESPECT THAT YOU'VE SHOWN! TO OUR BEAUTIFUL VERY TALENTED MEN 😍!!! AND PLEASE 🙏 HAVE THE BEST NEW YEARS EVER!🎉🎇☃️
Yes! JK explained it in the vid where they reacted to themselves. 9:58. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SdHl13XIKoI.html&si=EnSIkaIECMiOmarE
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I always look forward to watching your BTS reacts. It's very entertaining and educational. 😉 It's good to hear from a filmmaker's point of view. Much appreciated. Shoutout to Taylor Mari. Thank you so much. Stay safe and healthy. On to the next BTS MVs. Hehehe! God bless.
Love the reaction! Unsure if it’s been suggested before but stray kids could be a great group for you to check out if you lean more towards hip hop/rap than pop. And they have some outstanding MVs with great cinematography and camera work, particularly their scene transitions always baffle me. And usually have behind the scenes episodes too!
Please watch idol then watch the behind the scenes you will be surprised with their set. You would think there would be more cgi they are pretty creative
That's definitely Jungkook dancing on both sides of the glass. They just filmed each part separately. Sorry if a lot of people are telling you, I didn't have time to read many comments. 💜
