It’s recently been told that CGI companies don’t want to work with Marvel due to the amount of last minute requests on projects and too many projects all at once with tight deadlines.

From what I have heard, underpaying CGI artists is the case with smaller studios as well. The difference is that Marvel has enough money to stand on its own and not go bankrupt from 1 bad project, other smaller studios that rely on CGI don't have that privilege so they have to be more penny pinching

This has always been the case. For example, Marvel moved the release date for Endgame 1 month earlier (from May to April) and didn't notify the VFX artists (who found out via press release). The thing is, now Marvel is releasing 3 times the content they used to, so the exploitation is more evident and the drop in quality more noticeable

I’ve read that one of the reasons why Marvel has been moving from practical effects and focused more on CGI is because practical effect workers are usually unionized, which makes it harder to push unreasonable deadlines and make workers work under a time crunch. CGI/VFX aren’t unionized, so it’s easier for Marvel to cut costs.
@emilegalli9549
@emilegalli9549 2 года назад
With practical effects, well once you've gone through the steps of constructing an object, there is little wiggle room to change it. With computer effects, the issue is that they can be changed at multiple steps of production. In animation, a completed shot can go back lots of time to add various details, and the script can change a lot. As an associate producer manager I see that practically everyday on the movie I'm working on. It can be tiresome. The thing is though, a big reason it's not easy to unionize, is quite simply that Marvel can hire any studio in the world they want. So the unions would really only have a real power only on the VFX company employed by marvel. Hence, I feel the issue is mostly that Marvel is using compagnies, instead of having a proper in house vfx studio. If they had, well, giving retakes and delays would be much more straightforward. When you're a studio that's hired by a big company like marvel, it's really hard to renegotiate when there's too many retakes. A client will always be greedy. So, when there is no client / contractor relationship and it's your inhouse studios, consequences are a lot easier to take into account.

@@emilegalli9549 the problem with cutting practical is that it becomes hard to introduce anyone knew to acting on a set built for VFX- especially if they’re knew to acting in Hollywood. They aren’t as genuine as anyone whose done it for a while, and even then people who have done it won’t give off as good of a performance in a green/blue room holding almost nothing vs on location holding real props, interacting with real people. A good balance of VFX and Practical keeps costs at a good place and if Marvel could slow up for even a second, they could sit on that cash and make things worth producing. And they can even have time to write good scripts and put thought into the stories they tell. But they’ve factory lined this crap, they tell basically the same story with little variation, they give everyone the exact same personality, they all quip and joke and can’t take anything seriously. They’re all copies of some base model and we all know what happens with a copy of a copy, that gets further copied (so on and so forth)
@emilegalli9549
@emilegalli9549 2 года назад
@@vobsvids It's not really a question of cutting costs, but of pipeline. The reason those movies are done this way is because they want to be able to see result quickly and make lots of changes based on what they see. They bring whole sequences much farther they it used to be before cutting sometimes. And this is not as doable as it would be with more practical effects. Do you wanna know why there are more reshoots than usual nowadays ? This is the reason : the production method has changed. It allows for much more malleable changes in the course of production, it's less set in as movies tended to be previously. We call it "iterative production", though I am not quite sure the term is official, it's how this method has been presented to me. As far as quality goes, well, in my opinion this method of movie making is not adapted to complex storytelling, it works much better with gag based comedies, basically movies that can branch out in many sub plots and various little stories. It can make fun movies, but it's really not the thing for character studies. Because this method means your character can change a lot at practically any stage of production.
@vobsvids
@vobsvids 2 года назад
@@emilegalli9549 and Marvel built themselves on complex characters and their personal stories, The Avengers movies balanced comedy and tragedy- by making each character feel realistic, not everyone popped a quip at the end of every sentence, characters were allowed to have emotional scenes that weren’t immediately undercut by jokes- good Marvel content isn’t made to be streamlined like this. And that’s not saying they can’t make comedies, but they keep adding more and more impossibly huge stakes, and then never paying them off or using them for anything more than a gag. Infinite Universes???? And the first movie to actually explore that was completely nonsensical and didn’t even try to present its message very well. And the movie that introduced the topic was incredible, honestly Spider-Man NWH was great and proved that MCU Peter Parker was going to be more than a “quirky teenager” he was going to be a real character. The CGI was good, the story was decent, and it properly utilized fan service. But that’s the issue MoM followed the pipeline mold while NWH broke it a bit. Once more, Marvel isn’t built for the pipeline model.

Yes that is true. Close-ups and shots where you don't see a creature in full (like the T-Rex in Jurrassic Park) always look better with puppets and animatronics. CGI should be used for wide angle shots and when creatares run, jump, fly and so on, i.e. when animatronics are pushed to their limits. This combination looks great.

💯. Hellraiser 2 when Julia came out of the mattress… ICONIC. It looked terrifyingly REAL. A skinless monster from hell, with painstaking detail of veins, muscle, and tendons while simultaneously making her look “ juicy” as if her skin really was ripped off her body. You don’t see that happening anymore. That new Hellraiser movie was such TRASH. You can’t replicate something like that if you’re not going to use practical effects.

Same thing with a nightmare on elm street. That movie was all practical. The infamous scene of Glenn being sucked into the bed and the blood shooting up to the ceiling, the bed was actually on the ceiling they nailed it to the ceiling and poured the blood down and turned the camera in the opposite direction to make it look like the blood was going up but like it was reported that when they did this the crew almost got injured because the blood was going all over the floor on electrical equipment. When Nancy was running up the stairs and her feet were in that mush, that was glue and oatmeal and the actress really did struggle going up the stairs giving it a realistic feel. I miss this stuff
@tangerine4479

Sorry I keep replying Lmfaoooo. Also in Texas Chainsaw massacre, fun film fact: only less than one ounce of blood was used in the film. The part in the movie where she’s at the table with the family and they’re cutting her finger so the grandpa could suck the blood, she was holding a blood pump in her hand and it wouldn’t go off they did about 20 takes and it wasn’t working. So the guy playing leather face was getting frustrated and ACTUALLY cut Marilyn burns hand FOR REAL for that scene. So when she screams in that scene she’s screaming for real. And the part where he trips and falls with the chainsaw still going, that was an accident and the Chainsaw was real, he said he almost got seriously injured but they kept it in the film.

There is something special about a creative non-CGI effects team that cares about the movie. Just like what you said about Lion King, I remember how appalling and ugly the CGI was in Cats and comparing that to behind the scenes footage of the team who worked on the theatre stage show in the 90s is crazy. It’s hard to believe we went backwards, and on top of that everything has to have stupid celebrity appearances.

I agree. The Cats movie had, I believe, around a $75 million dollar budget, and yet the stageplay (that, after seeing both, I doubt the directors even watched) looked so much better. Not even just costume-wise either, though that was definitely the most notable aspect. It's sad that companies don't seem to respect the art as much. The way CGI artists, animators, and other workers behind shows and movies are treated is horrible.

Being a huuuge fan of MCU, I agree. They are overusing CGI nowadays. They are using 3d models for basic stunts like jumping from 2 ft to the ground. And because there's sooo much CGI to be implemented, CGI companies are getting under huge pressure of completing a lot of work in under a tight timeline, which in turn hurts a lot of cg artists. Please Marvel, use some practical atleast.

My guess is that it's cost saving not to have a specialty department for practical effects when they can just load down another job on the creaking desk of the VFX artists. Same reason they're blue screening everything. It eliminates transportation and setup costs, not to mention negotiating to use public streets or private buildings, to simply have a single permanent soundstage where they can composite in the actors.

To be honest, season 1 is the best season to watch randomly when you feel like it. :) Not too heavy and still entertaining. Plus now that we know everything they've been through, it's extremely nostalgic as well XD It reminds me of Fringe way too much.

It became apparent that it would actually be more efficient to buy a real plane of the real size, and perform this sequence for real in camera, rather than build miniatures or go the CG route."

That's it, bang on. CGI can be a great compliment to a movie, but using it as an excuse to be lazy is causing a loss of actual love for crafting a shot, or scene or moment, and then blending it with practical effects where appropriate. That's where all the impact comes from a movie; the craft. That's why people remember lingering shots from movies made 30+ years ago with such clarity. It didn't just flash by in a noisy CGI mess or get lost in a flat shot with nothing interesting going on between the characters. Imagine if restaurants, collectively, decided to get rid of their ovens, cooking utensils, preparation, and artistry in cooking because microwaves exist. And then they just buy everything in from a shop because it's cheaper and easier. In fact, we don't need to imagine this, it already happens, and those restaurants are terrible and get shouted at by Gordon Ramsay. And eventually, they close down and people lose their jobs. I understand why the studios do it, though, it's less risky and more instantly rewarding. And I respect the human safety aspect of stunts and set-pieces also has to be considered. But without some risk, you cannot develop or grow; everything just becomes stagnant. I know I am just echoing the video, but yeah, I agree fully with it/Stephanie, and with your comment.

It's just marvel is not allocating enough time and or budget. Honestly just look at the amazing spiderman, the spidey suit cgi is flawless same as the Iron Iron suit in Iron Man 1, the technology isn't the issue it's the way marvel goes about it
@megascopstrichopsis798
@megascopstrichopsis798 2 года назад
A few reasons why Marvel is abusing CG 1. It’s more expensive to film big name actors on location especially if it’s a short scene because it simply takes longer. Instead I would be much faster to shoot them in front of a green screen, therefore not having to pay the actors as much, and then they would just leave the problem to underpaid VFX artists. 2. Their films are made under extremely tight schedules so they often don’t even have everything figured out until after shooting, and they have fully accepted this issue as part of their pipeline 3. Most important point, VFX artists are non unionized and can be paid less than most people who have to show up and work on set, so by pushing all the problems and responsibilities onto the VFX artists, they actually save money. Not great for the VFX artists, great for Marvel’s bottom line. Overall it’s because Marvel realized that VFX artists can be made to work more for less money than other people in the film pipeline that they decided to simply use VFX everywhere. And now having pushed VFX artists to their absolute limit, they have no choice but to half ass their shots in order to stay sane and meet the impossible deadlines set by Marvel

While I agree that Marvel CGI has been rather lackluster lately, it's not the only factor that explains why their recent movies look so lackluster. There are other elements such as Marvel constantly amping the contrast and image sharpening between the actors and background so even if they film on the live set the film will still look fake, there is barely any "realistic" lighting casted upon the actors' face (except for some key scenes), lack of dust, dirt and wind effect (again except for some key scenes). Compared that to 2021 Dune where most of these major issues are "fixed" and the film looks amazing

It sucks that even when they do delay films to give the movie more time, they use that extra time to add random content and more effects, rather than polishing what’s already there. Doctor Strange 2 had its entire movie rewritten right before filming started yet the movie only had a few months delay. When they finished filming, it was delayed once again, but instead of editing and polishing their footage they used that time to shoot fanservice cameos and completely new fight scenes requiring heavy CGI… and the movie was barely even half a year away by then. Disney and Marvel really wanted the movie out by the summer season and what we got was a hot mess in all aspects, both screenwriting and CGI.

CG artist here. One thing to consider is location scouting and scheduling. Its much easier and cheaper to blue screen these complex scenes and set them up with equipment and all if you have a dedicated space where all production members can get to easily. You dont have to fight with cities like nyc to set up times to block traffic for a shoot expecially mid day. Also with marvel continually wanting massive interconnected stuff they need to be able to easily shoot and reshoot shots to fit in the the over arching plan. They (executives not the artist) are not making a movie they making a multi year scheme to get you to consume everything from the movies to the toys to your plans. Cgi needs time and proper set up to archive the right look. Most of the big production houses that work on the films bounce between each other different teams across a globalized network each handling small specialized task. Asia for example has alot of roto artist that do the green screen grunt work and than gets kicked back to the western companies for compositing. Hell some software such as something called yeti ( used to create cg hair and fur) for a long time was not legal to use in the US so they would outsource to europe to work with yeti and kick it back to us here. Work gets split up with teams that have very little team coordination let alone the time allowed to work on them. With the scale marvel uses its inconceivable to dedicate the work to it. cgi is everywhere but most times we don't notice it if done right. And it sucks cause we are using some of the most advanced software ive ever had my hands on and theres so much that goes into it. With the most expensive being any kind of simulation (fabrics, muscles, fluids, explosions) leaving little room for the stuff that makes them look good which is the material and lighting work. Its sad to continually see the medium ive spent over a decade learning get more and more dragged through the dirt. And the problem is the the money people not the artist who have been dreaming on working on these things since they were kids, are thrown on these insane workloads and we do it cause we love what we do. Theres alot more I could say but yea hopefully that rant/passion dump was coherent enough to make sense 😄 Edit: for those who are interested i am on the cg side primarily in modeling textures and materials and rigging some of the more under noticed aspects of the production process as most time its not the final product and people don't tend to notice the amount of work without context of the final shot. Even tho litterly no aspects of the final product can be made without those core foundational assets. This industry is filled with some of the most passionate intelligent and creative people due to all the random aspects of reality we gotta break down and understand to recreate reality using essentially math on a fundamental level. This is definitely a transitional phase of the industry from games to movies theres so much new shit coming out that we won't see the full implementation of till a few years and its exciting as hell. And theres a general growth in interest so hopefully things will work out for the better and we get over this stagnation in creative imaginative works soon

Somehow, you'd think someone would be able to come up with a more captivating way to use the nenotech that is more than just things appearing really quick. People loved those suit-up sequences. They felt real, they felt possible, they looked badass. Yes, nanotech techinally seems "cooler" than metal plates, but it seems like such a distant thought that its cooler to think about having a suit of metal plates, because the nanotech just seems so far out. If they're gonna use really high tech, they gotta find a way to make it look cooler.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed the bad CGI in Marvel movies these days. The first time I noticed was in Black Panther, and it really pulled me out of the film. I think the CGI is only going to get worse from here on. They have so many projects in the works that there is no way for the FX teams to properly create good and believable CGI for all those shows and movies. I noticed the writing for Marvel has taken a sharp nose dive too. I don't think there is anything in Phase 4 that can pass as even ok in terms of writting, and it makes sense because the writters don't have time to redraft the script. They begin filming even before the scripts are finished, or the script is hugely rushed. Like how the script of Balck Widow was made in only 11 days, which is terribly little time (for example LotR trilogy took 14 months to write), and it shows. But all of Phase 4 is like this. Rushed in every department. The death of the MCU will be slow and painful.

I am actually a CG Artist and would like to quickly comment on a few things. There are some common misunderstandings here that I also see in the comments. Unnecessary CGI isn't really the problem, and regarding some of your examples: 2:31: This effect is chroma-keying and is used much more than people realise. Look at VFX reels/breakdowns involving compositing and you would be surprised at how much it is used. But why do movies use them when it isn't necessary?: 1) Moving cast, the crew, and extras across locations is a pain in the ass and expensive - just moving and setting up equipment alone can take hours, often just to get a few minutes of screen time. Having everything in one place saves a lot of time and money. 2) Shooting in a studio also enables complete control over the camera, lighting and, importantly, sound. Shooting on an actual NYC street means there's no control over background noise during takes which makes continuity a huge issue when cutting them together. 2:56: Doing the gun digitally was most likely due to having no prop. This can be because the actual concept for the gun was still a work in progress, not fully fleshed out, hadn't been constructed, etc. 7:32: Another reason a director might opt for greenscreen is artistic control. In this shot, a director might want the rowboat in the background, travelling with the actors - but if you do it practically and want to redo a take, the boat must be pushed back, everything reset in place, and done again. This would be done for every take, so the director instead opts to do it in post. Another reason might be because behind the actors, there might not be a picturesque bridge and background but just a brick wall or a visible crowd watching the shoot. 7:43: The movie does look cloudy and ugly, but that's not due to VFX but rather bad art direction. I won't get super technical, but marvel movies are purposefully shot with very flat, even lighting, making it very easy to change things in post-production, e.g. certain elements of the lighting. This is the result of poor planning and lacklustre art direction - the scene shouldn't be lit from every angle since the final look hasn't been decided on. The VFX in Marvel Movies has been so bad recently because Marvel is pushing out a mind-boggling amount of movies and Disney+ shows - their resources are spread thin. In post-production, they change the brief with little notice, give unreasonable timeframes and demand such speed and output that leads to bad results. Directors can also be inexperienced with VFX and not have enough time to plan things out or learn how to smooth out the process. I was told that the directors of Captain Marvel were so inexperienced that they would generally make the worst decisions, negatively impacting the VFX.

Off topic: To me, Micheal Bay's Transformers franchise is the easiest place to nitpick on CGI. And that franchise has the greatest effects. How I do it is just depend on the transformations. If that transformation shows parts moving side to side, back to front, or some instances where that moving part is hiding back for the new moving part to cover for it, that's good CGI, but if they just let characters flip their body and just make it up by moving parts here on there, that's lazy CGI.

Yeah the transformations in the Michael Bay movies are overly complicated and messy just to make sure the viewer lose track of where the parts are moving so that cheating can be done. I'd prefer the basic rough part of the transformation to be done first so that you can clearly follow whats going on and then some fine tuning of smaller body parts in the end of transformation.

Speaking of Iron Man, I love the suit up sequences in 1 and 2, the details of each nuts and bolt, the animation of each parts attached and move together are just amazing and its shows how much time and efforts its take to made a very short scenes, but its made the movie unique. I personally not a fan of the Infinity War suit not only because the design looks weird, but also the suit up animation is a straight downgrade (now it just NANOMACHINE SON!!!!!).

This is why Terminator 2 is still my favourite sci-fi movie of all time. They really used cgi when certain scene or effects seemed impossible to get, and when they do it comes out clean and amazing for its time (even until now), notice how sleek T1000 looked there. Also for the nuclear explosion scene, they even recreate a miniature town with everything else in it, just for them to destroy it later. Now, here we see a multibillion company used said technology to recreate a dimly lit bar.

You said it best, it needs to be a balancing act. A movie should have both practical and CGI put together in such a way you can’t tell which is which. That’s how it should always be, really keeps the viewer immersed, and like you said the effects will hold up for years to come.

3:08 they edited out his moustache because he was filming another movie at the same time and was legally obligated by contract to keep it. Not because they could, but because they had to. 3:35 the t-rex wasn’t just practical it was also cgi, and it was easier to animate because there was only one source of light and rain. They didn’t have to add a lot of detail on the t-Rex for the cgi because the shadows could be pitch black. It’s harder to make cgi look good when you have to take into consideration light scattering and reflection.

But even the outdoor scenes of the T-Rex were amazing... And the footage in the rotunda! I think one of the main contributors to the success is that they retained the stop motion animators, and adapted their approach with physcial models... Making more of a hybrid technique.

The Iron Man point though. I decided to jump into the MCU this past week. I already watched some of it, but nothing really past Captain America: Civil War. When it came out. So starting back at Iron Man, which I hadn't seen since 2012, was a TRIP. I met up with my family and expressed how impressed I was with the first Iron Man and how I couldn't believe it was released in 2008 because "the computer graphics looked so real, I thought they would be so dated!" I was especially worried because I had seen the coming attractions for their new projects. But was surprised that my memory held up well, even though I hadn't seen the movie in 10 years. I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed. The first set of movies were great, because they knew what they were doing. They got too big though. I mean you can express your anger about the story and how they suck now and everything, but even the graphics have gone to shit. This is just depressing.

3:02 theory: they had a model of the gun made, probably for 3D printing or machining, then some genius executive thought thought they could save money by skipping a step and directly using it in the film. Afterall, after a model's been made, CGI is free and plastic cents a gram... ignoring how the former is only because VFX artists are underpaid, and keeping an animated scene consistent even after you have a model can still be a chore. Maybe they played too many videogames with in-engine cutscenes, not realising there's a difference between "stunning videogame graphics and clipping models kept to a minimum" and "photorealistic digital effects without janky physics".

I'm seeing a lot of positive feedback to this video, but having talked to a lot of people in the industry and knowing about vfx, this is a bit misguided in my opinion. As an example, when you talk about the original Iron Man looking better, at 6:37, all of the shots we see are the CG suit The real suit was mainly used for lighting reference. The difference is art direction, not vfx itself. But no one criticizes art direction or the designs, just the cgi. This is why I think this is a bit misguided. Also, vfx is amazing these days, but people only focus on the bad cg. The opposite happens for practical effects. Only the best of the best practical effects are remembered, while the lackluster ones are forgotten. And there is amazing vfx nowadays, just look at Tanos for example, or the whole Dune movie. One of the reasons why the Black panther's vfx look so bad, is that most of the vfx people were already working on Endgame or Infinity war, I don't remember which one. There is a big sortage of VFX artists, that's another thing to consider. Anyway, not sure what my point was, these are just some thoughts. And thanks for reading the comment!

An other big problem is that they release so many movies and shows in such a sort time, that the entire project doesn't have enought time to be made. Visual Effects artists that worked on Marvel movies said that Marvel has the worse Visual Effects pipeline cos they have never really sedeled on how things are supposed to look like or what is gonna be there. the VFX Artists then have to replace so many stupid things or have to creat CGi background for scenes that could've been shot practicly. Yes there are always seperate teams working on each mocie, but when the ''finished'' script is delivered the pre-production ''finished'' and production starts all the way to the post-production, then there is not that much time. All of these thing and the things you said make the Visual Effects and a all of the CGi terrible.

The problem is the examples you showed are all from a time when making good films was more important than making money because the only way to make money was by making good films. Now we have this mass produced Disney+ and the rest streaming world full of garbage that would never get past test screening but nowadays gets 8 seasons of reboots. It feels like CGI like in LoTR used to be SO much more expensive and difficult to get right so they used it well. Now it's somehow become the cheaper option when that should never be the case and it should only be used for the impossible such as showing spaceships or giant battles etc but it's used for everything as you demonstrated making it less of a rare but justified resource and more of a given to overwork people to animate instead of flying to italy or something.

This is a great example of cgi being used sparingly to complement practical effects not replace them. And while I whole heartedly agree with you about practical effects, the reality is that as long as it is cheaper it will be used. Especially by studios such as Disney and Warner bros who's main goal is making money. With dark knight being the exception I guess.

After not having watched any of their movies for a few years I chose Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and it was truly truly disappointing. Specially the first half/third of the movie. The rest seemed to get a bit better but the scene where America takes them to the rooftop.. the Dr's corpse looking like ps3 games and the whole rooftop looking like a blender hobbyist put it together in a few hours really ruined it for me. Dr's third eye didn't help either....

To be honest, effects from the 1980s-2010s were way better then the current ones, for example: the practical effects and the computer effects for the movie “Killer Klowns from outer space” were a little bad and weird looking, but it was the 80s when this movie came out and was worked on, and the animictronic heads for that movie were really well made for a movie made around 30 years ago, nowadays, MARVEL has to use CGI for the most simple things, they could have filmed the scene of Peter Parker at New York, but no they have to put him in a blue screen, this generation is screwed.

What you said is very true. Adding to what you said, one big factor for why CGI is declining is due to all the CGI employees being underpaid. These CGI artists are bing EXTREMELY overlooked in the Marvel industry. Marvel relies so heavily on CGI now that it puts the CGI artists on overload. Artists in general whether you are a 2D animator, 3D animator, CGI, VFX, comic artist, manga artist, game artist, or any artist, they are always underpaid. For a group of people that make such a difference in the entertainment field, they are so neglected. Marvel CGI and VFX artist are being underpaid to the point where their motivivation for what they do best is gone. I hope big companies realize how much work goes into the VFX, CGI, and animation industry. Its not just a few button clicks and its over.

The CGI is being rushed since there is about 3 marvel movies coming out each year. The VFX artists are being worked to the bone and I’m surprised the CGI doesn’t look worse. But I completely agree, look at the CGI in Phase 1 of marvel. It’s leagues better than some of the CGI we see now

lord of the rings actually did not have much cgi at all. almost every single thing possible was made with practical effects. rivendell wasn't cgi; it was actually just made using some trickery with a miniature spliced together with actual recordings using minimum effects; mainly just a bluescreen. gollum's movements were real, and so was his voice. the only thing about him that was CGI was the actual way the body looked

While I agree the the recent cgi have been lackluster and overused, I feel like some of the clips you showed were fine or there’s a reason. For the clips like Flash and Fury, I heard that was due to scheduling conflicts and while maybe they could of not used a blue screen, I don’t really mind cause i would have never noticed it cgi. (That last part goes for the black widow clip too) For Venice it’s hard to shoot everything there because of the shots they were doing. They would have to clear out very populated areas for shooting, while it has been done before, idk if we know the full story like maybe they tried but weren’t given the permission. And they had scenes where the used real effects like water pushing Peter and that might not be possible to setup in the actual Venice area. Ok it’s late for me, Im tired and I’m changed the wording of this a ton of times so Idk if I said everything right but my point is basically that for some of these I can give a pass to because either I didn’t notice or they did what they could That being said, I almost completely agree with the general points you made and that CGI is clearly a problem that needs to be worked on in Marvel. I’m sure tons of fans would rather have a scene changed to be more grounded if it meant it they didn’t have to see a clearly obvious CGI

So sad that Marvel is now goes more to the quantify instead of the quality. I read an article how stressfull it is working at the MCU as a cgi worker, because of the lack of time they get.

Yeah I think one of the biggest problems with marvel is that they’re not really slowing down with the amount of projects they’re releasing. They’re pushing out so many movies and shows that the teams behind VFX don’t have enough time to finalize one project before being hastily moved on to the next one.

They've at least delayed The Marvels, and now the other Disney+ shows are "coming soon". They should be delaying projects more frequently to have more time on VFX and maybe the writing.

It seems like all these big companies have forgotten that makeup art is a thing. I remember when I was younger I would have nightmares of the Orcs from Lord of The Rings. They looked so real because they were real in a sense. CGI was created to enhance the experience, NOT to carry it.
