@petergivenbless900 3 месяца назад

The problem of shooting a practical explosion for the atomic bomb test in 'Oppenheimer' is that they had to shoot it in IMAX, which limits filmspeed and exposure levels, they should have used a cloud tank, like the shots in 'The Beginning or The End' (1947), which hold up pretty well and could have been further improved with modern lighting and technology. Also, a little correction about the 'Dawn of Man' shots from '2001: A Space Odyssey"; it used Front-Projection (which you have covered in your video about the 'IntroVision' process) which allows for a brighter in-camera image and larger projection field.

@twelvefootnine 3 месяца назад

It looks incredible however it doesn't look like a nuke, there is no mush room cloud. I was a bit underwhelmed how Christopher Nolan done it, not going to lie but I get his motive, he done it small but with the mushroom cloud too and that was effective with close up shots he done, if he made a huge explosion with a massive shockwave and mushroom cloud too it would of being possible but the dangers are there when filming it and im sure he wanted to avoid that especially when you could only do that once.

The explosion actually looks pretty accurate though. Nolan said he wanted to recreate the actual explosion of Trinity that we have footage of, and the movie did a pretty good job at it.

Honestly, the fact that the nuke scene was underwhelming shows that VFX is still an important part of filmmaking. It shows that while doing all visual effects is not a good thing, going all practical is not necessarily a good thing either. VFX should be used as a tool to *help* with improving shots. Not being used to completely create the scene you want, but to add details and effects to elevate your scene.

@xenon787 2 месяца назад

I think it was Tom Scott who had a fantastic breakdown of the difference between a gasoline and a TNT explosion, and I've developed a good eye for it ever since. Just like you, the nuke in Oppenheimer stood out to me for being all gasoline. The sound design sells it, though - being punched in the chest in IMAX was pretty fun.

Those LED volumes refresh at 3840hz or 7680hz. The problem is not the screen itself, it is the underlying video system feeding it. It is still being standard 60i/P, 30i/P or 24P video sources. I'm not sure which volume they used here, but there are ways around this. If you are feeding a progressive source and shooting on a global shutter camera, you should not have issues with flicker like you're seeing here. I believe the volumes at Trilith by Lux Machina have accounted for this.

As they said, the blast looks nothing like an actual explosion, the lighting on the actors lying on the ground is so off, it's just, ugh. That right there removes any of the implications and weight of what that moment really represents in reality and that actually kind of pisses me off.

@@13374me its supposed to be the explosion from oppies perspective. Remember almost the whole coloured movie is HIS past. Its supposed to be representative of the destruction he remembers and how he remembers it as. It has exactly the weight it needs, because it's all in his head anyway because it's a look into his past from his perspective and he's not exactly the most reliable narrator. He observes the explosion as such, because who cares what it looked like, when his thought process is exclusively focused on the fact that he immediately knows what he has done.

@@mezzb idk if I'd say it's dogma, Chris has used CG before and has in nearly all his films, even in other movies when making a nuclear explosion. I think if anything it was poor planning on that part. I mean even the comp shot looks as if it wasn't intended to be one, remove the nuke stitched in the background and it looks powerful. I'm glad that a 3 hour movie on the life of the most important physicist of all time was given enough respect not to risk the story for wonky CG. I genuinely think that's where he was going with it, and I can understand why a 2 minute scene that precedes an hour more of story seems like a risk to involve CG. But with so much budget saved I do think he could've produced something that looked more respectable than a Marvel flick.

@itsthomasreimer 3 месяца назад

@vismaykedilaya1318 3 месяца назад

When I saw the bomb, i was underwhelmed tbh. It didn't feel like a nuke. It just felt like a gas station caught fire. There are certainly ways to capture the feeling of a nuke in CG without making it look MCU-esque. If Avatar 2 can create an entirely CG movie, creating a convincing nuclear explosion seems almost trivial in comparison (not discounting the work required to do it practically, but it'd certainly be a lot easier and look better in CG).

@aubryoakes7108 3 месяца назад

paused a few minutes in to note: the trinity test was a nuclear fission bomb, whereas most nuclear test footage we see floating around is from Hydrogen bombs utilizing primarily nuclear fusion to release energy. Those expanding spheres at the beginning were either directly from or recreations of such detonations. They have a bunch of these tests available on RU-vid, and I heartily recommend you check out the footage from Operation Teapot, specifically the Turk shot.

The Trinity test scene is more about being in Oppie's head and perspective as he is observing the explosion. I get that it doesnt have the awe or scale of an actual nuke, but i think it's more about viewing it from the distance and perspective of Oppie's pov. That and they insisted on going practical, which is cool in it's own right even if it doesnt capture quite the scale of a real atomic explosion.
