@tvaziri the bluescreen is literally in the header image
Show threadTroldann ArothinJul 29, 2023
@dan @tvaziri Yeah, but we all know that the blue screen is just to enable background replacement with practical models.

@dan @tvaziri The Guardian knows CGI is all done with green screens.

@tvaziri
Is this just editors getting involved in the anti-union activities by bashing CGI makers implying we shouldn’t be paying for them, in order for the editors to keep access to the Hollywood parties?

The agency problem in media is never really reported by the media for some reason.

Agency Problem: Definition, Examples, and Ways To Minimize Risks

An agency problem is a conflict of interest where one party, motivated by self-interest, is expected to act in another's best interests.

@tvaziri best part being the guardian article having a picture that clearly shows the blue screen behind the actors in Barbie 😂😂

@tvaziri You’re leading the anti anti-CGI backlash backlash. 🫡

@tvaziri why are they using blue screen anyway, IIRC green screen works better for digital and there aren't any green elements in frame
(And I like that I'm concerned about how they're applying VFX and not about the straight up lie)

@tvaziri remarkable how that headline gets incrementally dumber with each word.

@tvaziri there’s a nuanced way to discuss how the VFX were done in these movies vs, say, Dead Reckoning. And then there’s whatever crap that article is.

@tvaziri "I'd say there's maybe 2000 shots in the movie and a good 1400, 1500 were VFX shots, so three quarters of the film were processed through VFX" -- Matt Garner, one of the VFX editors on Barbie
