PACIFIC RIM Behind The Scenes: The Conn Pod - Legacy Effects 

I'm so glad you guys did this with animatronics instead of CG :)

Honestly if they made the Conn Pod at Disney the line would be so long that you'd have to reserve your seat in line months before. An it'd still be amazing.

This is mindblowing. When you show the huge Con-Pod short clips, the actors moving, the water canon... My mind just... EXPLODED !!!

What if, they made a virtual reality Pacific Rm game, like an arcade game, but using an actual Conn-Pod set. Oh LAWD!!

I actually thought the conn pod shots were CG until I saw a massive set of one in a behind the scenes video. It's so well done that I thought they simply took the lazy route of using CG, but just pulled it off incredibly well.

I just cant stop imagine of using a machine like that, to build a virtual reality video game. .... imagine it with a rift oculus. man how awesome it could be..

Best VR experience ever.

In uprising, the pilots are literally just attached to a stick

DEL TORO RULES!!!

That's the difference .....what's lack in Uprising.

It is so amazing that now I even can tell what you have contributed in a movie. Nobody does metallic surfaces and machinery look more convincing then Legacy EFX!

were any kaiju hurt in the making of this video?

Loved this movie! Thanks for making it great LE!

The magic of this will be lost in the sequel

GREAT work. This kind of dedication is what what made me feel like I was right next to the pilots. It FELT powerful and dangerous.

Genial producción, gran trabajo

Everytime i watch a behind the scenes all i can think about is how long did this stuff take like this looks like years of work and writing and measurments but then you find out it only took weeks or months the movie world is a crazy industry and i love it!

respect for all these practical effects, most directors now days would use CGI, but Del Toro knows whats people want to see.

The conn pods were so well designed!

this is insanely awesome!

Same here. I was actually very surprised at how little CG was used for this.

I will work for you, for free. No, I will pay you to let me work in your studio! I can scrub toilets!!!

Now open it to the public!

everybody that making this movie are incredible, they are not human💥

You guys are so awesome. The movie looked great because of your guys' hard work, dedication, and love put into making these props

this si sick, i love that you guys are posting these!

Looks, feels, and is better than Uprising.

That is insane! Great work guys!

Amazing stuff

INSANE JOB, BIG UP to LEGACY EFFECTS

i want more pacific rim!!!!

great job

So cooool

outstanding work!

This is jaw-dropping stuff.

It’d be awesome to be in one of those rigs tbh! Who’s with me?

What if just what if, we use that huge machine to play video games? oOHH...

Amazing video

대단하네요

cool

Awesome.

So cool and crazy! Especially at 2:26-2:30!

I LOVE It

love this movie want a prequel to see tacit ronin, victory alpha, romeo blue and horizon brave

Show us the crimson typhoon helmet

Wow good 👌

How someone comes up and designs this is beyond me

And to think we went from this to teenagers doing backflips with 2000 tons robots...

that legit looks so fucking sick

It’s like there actually building the jaeger

Legacy effects We are waiting for ur work in 2.0

Cool Like Yes 👍

WE ARE GETTING IN THR FUTURE BOYS

Yeah... I imagined the same thing. Like if they were somehow able to make an amusement park ride based off the conn-pods.

I was thinking about a similar system to a book of mine. Although there the pilot would be bound at the waist and then free to wiggle around. This stuff hanging from the ceiling is awesome too but not very practical. Still, you have my respect. And my thumbs up! :-)

What happens if some one stole that and has an actual conn-pod build

Amazing job ;-)

Where can I get one of these!? It looks so awesome!!!

Who knew advanced VR was already done in 2013

SketchUp FTW.

MK 1 : A lot of cable in conn pod MK 4 : Wireless

Guess what's missing from Uprising

Wow I want to work there

They were actually in a giant mech head!!!!!

good

We need a C.R. pacific rim with you in the con pod fighting jaegers or kaiju

This is prop porn, and I love it. Keep it up!

¿No ay mas vídeos de Titanes del pacífico?

what if pacific rim is real but still in progress

Robot? Wow

Damn, I just love this movie so much! Not a fan of the black nor uprising.

ಸೂಪರ್

This is the ONLY thing uprising needs

Was that 3d max or Maya i saw... just wondering

wow so awesome treet in pacific rim giant robot hu

Fuck this shit is fucking awsome!

Cuando vi la película por primera vez creí que los robots,kaiju y armaduras eran de verdad y mi madre me dijo que no eran dé verdad pero yo sigo creyendo qué son dé verdad aunque no lo sean😏😉🐶

Ông ơi ông ra phần 3 đi ông ơi

the name is like the man behind the slaughter but its called pacific rim behind the scene

Grand fix how do the stand up with out tipping over

It says click but you cannot click the video lmao

And Uprising failed with this! Pacific Rim made the whole thing already seems futuristic and also feels realistic to pilot the Jeagers in the first movie, but cames Uprising with its "upgraded" mark 6 Jeagers that looks like the pilots were in a electric treadmill stead of piloting a colossal robot!

all these physical assets of Pacific Rim 1 shouldn't go to waste and just gathering dust in warehouses. Some billionnaire needs to invest a venue in a theme park with actual size of Jaeger that could move around. Gypsy Danger, the Australian jaeger, Cherno, and Crimson Typhoon. Or better, create a specific theme park just for Pacific Rim 1. And they can also continue the franchise with TV series using the physical assets, just like Star Trek TNG did. Actually all the ingredients for success are there. Great story, great mechanics of the jaegers, terrifying kaijus, nice characters. Don't let Pacific Rim 1 stop. Remake or create a better sequel please.

tyty

They didn't need to make the conn-pod for Coyote because there was never any scenes inside it.

I can only imagine that for the Russians getting water thrown at them constantly for the fight scene , it would be hard to breath for air and call a time out when they need it badly

Uprising is better For making people disappointed

Pacific Rim Simulator pls

суперррр

In relaity the building of 4 Yeagers would bankrupt the US. If you know anything about engineering...a project on that massive of a scale would #1 be caught up in research and development for 20 years. You'd have to draft schematics, blueprints, special weapons technology, find a secret local so massive that you would probably end up having to excavate large areas of land. You have to import materials, parts, and manpower. The sheer number of workers, labor hours, transportation cost, housing cost, food cost, fuel cost, etc. Keep in mind....all this I mentioned is before you actually start to construct one. Also the first one you build would be a prototype. You'd spend 2 to 3 years working the kinks out of that one. Then once you build a fully functioning one, how would you get it live action experience? Its not a human that you can send to boot camp. Id estimate to build 1 functioning Yeager in real life would cost probably 700 Billion dollars for one.

Stil amazing antil now

I knew the cockpit look too real for CG, I was right

So they use autodesk for the computer work, interesting

0:51 Iron Man abs. :)

Your robot try hard enough or when they have some materials or resources and mechanical parts to build one

This is What was missing in the sequel.

woooooo

What the fck they made it. I thought it was all CGI?

Doing right what George lucas did wrong. Guillermo del Toro went as far as to craft all that rich detail and awesome set pieces with some cgi enhancements, while George Lucas lazily used green screens for everything. it makes me wonder if the prequels were gonna be fully animated. plus the cgi in the star wars prequels are terrible.

Is' my dream to have this
