- Take a look at the practical and digital effects that brought eight natural disasters to life, from the apocalyptic events of "2012" to the biblical deluge of "Noah."
Hollywood has always been keen on disaster flicks. The genre is unique in the sheer size of the spectacles that must be created, with special effects teams building entire cities or worlds only to level them. In this episode of "Movies Insider," we break down the diverse techniques used to create extreme weather phenomena on the big screen, from miniature effects to shaky deck sets to a massive light and rain rig, and show you exactly what these effects looked like behind the scenes.
We do a deep dive into how "San Andreas" used CG to sculpt a deep fissure in the earth, providing the backdrop for The Rock's heroics, and how "The Impossible" recreated the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami with real water, filming Naomi Watts' and Tom Holland's scenes in Europe's largest water tank.
Plus, see how "Mad Max: Fury Road" created a hellish sandstorm fit for George Miller's dystopian vision, how Darren Aronofsky brought the biblical story of Noah's Ark and the Great Flood to life with large-scale rain effects in "Noah," and how Paul W. S. Anderson's "Pompeii" made an exacting recreation of the ancient city only to later destroy it with a volcanic eruption, earthquake, and tsunami. And find out how "Into the Storm" made a fantastical fire tornado look believable and how apocalypse movies like "2012" and "The Day After Tomorrow" used groundbreaking special effects to imagine end-of-the-world scenarios.
"2012" is now available from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment

How 8 Extreme Weather Scenes Were Made for Movies | Movies Insider - ภาพยนตร์และแอนิเมชัน
There's something so satisfying about small scale models.
I agree
frrr
so… tiny…
so cool
@@fia5594 That's what she said
I had too lol
“The Impossible” was a masterpiece of film. It looks completely real 95% of the time.
It is too bad many of these films lack decent plots. Lots of effort put into these movies, only to be forgotten due to the lack of compelling story.
I agree
Yes its kinda sad how much effort designers, prop makers and vfx teams put into these only for the story to be forgetable. Feels like writers only do an ok job meanwhile the artists are going beyond.
They want you to see what they want you to see. Not what you want them to see.
Can’t talk smack about Mad Max Fury Road tho, that film is a masterpiece in all aspects.
Ikr
For me, "The Impossible" is the best tsunami movie I've watched so far and based on true story.
Agree, I watch it years ago and rewatch it this year. The acting, the scene, everything is perfect. Even the little kids that desperately calling their brother, my god the best. And I didn't even realize that he was Tom Holland back then 😄
I liked it but the bit where her leg fell apart was gross :(
And the most realistic either, the tsunami is soo real.
It's not like on movies that have 40 mts Wave that never breaks. It's a actual small Wave with huge volume of water like in real life
Repent to Jesus Christ!

Yup! I agree
6 years researching for pompeii just for the movie to suck and be forgettable...
Should've spent a bit more time on the script
@BonsaiI23 u know they don’t just do that 24/7 they would of done it for a few hours a day probably
6 years researching but couldn't make the disasters accurate.
@@wonders9230 What you mean?
@@wonders9230 Man, I'm talking about the movie producers. Scientists can tell what happened with enough accuracy. As a matter of fact, we know how volcanoes work, and they don't rain fire bombs on cities, shockwaves don't cause massive tsunamis, stratovolcanoes don't erupt lava. This is hardly an accurate depiction of a volcano.
"Our budget is $50m for practical effects"
"How much for writing?"
"Uhhh... We'll wing that on the night"
haha

How on earth is Twister not in here? That movie featured groundbreaking CGI for its day, and it's still impressive even today.
Right?! All the power of massive server farms & complex physics sims can't compare to what ILM did over 20 years ago with just some practical elements & a neat hand animated tornado with a simple particle system & cards attacked to the particles. Can literally recreate that sorta shot on your average high end desktop now days. LOL. Just goes to show the power of solid planning & a decent script with great actors.
Even the Universal ride was impressive.
this is not a top ten list lmao
"Cow..."

2012: we spent millions of dollars to shake people around.

Hahaha. Old time was awesome right?
reminds me of the old days.
Don’t forget the abnormal use of lens flares
@@XiionBeatz dope.
Loll
Imagine signing up to be a background character in pompeii and being asked if they can set you on fire for a scene
no

There are people who do these stunts.
background actors don't do stunts, those would be stunt men and women doing a burn in the scene with extras.
@@markvarley4557 background stunt person
We truly take the things they do for these movies for granted
I always assumed this type of movie was mostly reliant on CGI ... it is even more impressive to see how it's really a SEAMLESS blend of CGI and practical effects. I have a greater respect for film-making and the ingenuity it must take to pull this off, never even requiring the audience to suspend their disbelief -- simply because it looks SO REAL!!

Thanks so much
Shows how much effort it takes to make some scenes happen, which most of us may just brush away or ignore. That's why I respect the work of Emmerich...
the day after tomorrow is such an underrated movie. I watched in science class one year and its honestly one of my favorite disaster movies
Wouldn’t be amazing someone actually films a movie in an natural disaster ? 😌
That would be a documentary
Jurassic Park. Spielberg filmed a real hurricane.
@@qa38o54 that is true

I didn’t know, film making is an Art! This is so fascinating
Ummmm…..
Really….. you thought it was real?
@@Ethan-vw7ry no, I mean the effort and creativity they put behind every film is amazing!
It is a sort of art, you can sense an aesthetic beauty behind filmmaking, their creativity and how they capture the emotion of their viewer. It is like a poem
@@Unknown_Genius Iol, you funny bro
Now, what i really want to know is where did those 2 olympic pool worth of water used for the rain in Noah go ?
Can you imagine how much water sitting on the ground that is ? I can't imagine the amount of mud and puddles it must have created... i tip my hat to all the people working in that scene, especially the one who didn't have any rain gear like the extras and actors... !
I get so excited every a Movies Insider video releases.
‘The impossible’ film made me cry watching it as a kid
2012 was iconic. Specially at that time people were scared but others were also skeptic about the prophecy of "the end of the world". It felt more real honestly than other movies
Only the idiots feel scared tho
@@moochoopr9551 yea man, moo choo knows a thing or two about idiots tho
@@moochoopr9551 I felt like an idiot for being too scared of the disasters back when it came out, but now I feel like that movie is an April Fools joke. Regardless of that, the amount of effort for the movie is stunning.
I can't believe I'm rushing my showers to help the environment, and they just waste thousands of gallons of water for a pretty shot
True. They can use computer graphics to show water not waste so much water. It makes me angry 😭😡.
Edit :thanks a lot for likes everyone.
Just shut up

"Into the Storm"
The most underrated movie out of the lot.
Ikr, I was blown away on how large the tornadoes are in that movie back then.
That’s probably my favourite! I love that one
@@Moon122 oh into the storm is too good
@@TristanKeener it is. I love a good storm movie.
@@Moon122 Same!
N they make it look so real...
Unbelievable....
HATS off to the director and all the people that make this happen👌🤝👏
Thanks for this! I thought The Impossible looked IMPOSSIBLY good on screen and always wondered how they did it. It seems so real! Great film, btw, to anyone who hasn't seen it. Unbelievable acting and nail-biting tension combined with gut-wrenching drama. A must-watch!
PS: funnily enough, I've only seen Hollywood-scale rain once or twice in my life - and I live in London! The rain in movies is mostly just plain unrealistic.
I'm from Florida and feel a bit differently 😹 we got like 10 different types of rain
@@justanothercarol I'm from Florida also, and I can attest to that!
The reason we use large rain drops is because small rain drops do not register on camera as well as the large ones do
Like they said, rain doesn't really show up very well on camera.
The amount of hardwork it takes >>
I really like the combination between Cgi and practical effects.
Jajaja these disaster movies are really enjoyable I don't know why.
The correct mix of practical and CGI is by far the best way to do special effects. That's why "Jurassic Park" still looks good almost 30 years later. It's also because of the directing and cinematography. For example, using practical effects in close-ups, and CG in wife shots.
@@augustgreig9420 oh yeah, wife shots, my favorite. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
@@doburu4835 🤣🤣🤣
The people behind the scenes really are the ones that make it happen!! This is amazing!!!!
The rain in the final battle of Seven Samurai has not been matched, to this day
Wow.. i love watching insiders… i learn so much esp when i’m actually studying this sectors in college
I swear I was thinking about Wren and Niko the entire time..
Haha same man!
Yup.
😎
I’d love to know about the environmental impacts of these things. Like if they use environmentally friendly colours in the sea water for the tsunami & then re-release the water to the ocean, or if the other scenes use actual drinking water for the rain etc.
If all looks great but it sounds very wasteful to create all these things. Anyone know if theses ever been an article or paper on the environmental impacts of various movies/movie genre?
righttt i was about to write the same exact thing. unfortunately I don't think Hollywood gives a damn,and then we all suffer the consequences
Clearly you don't know what the water cycle is.
@@Petersburg-vz4vs Clearly you don't know what water conservation actually means. It's not that the earth can or will run out of water, it's that most of the water on earth drinkable. We only have access to a comparatively tiny amount of freshwater at once. If we're not careful, we can use it up faster than it replenishes.
Also, pollutants and toxins are important to worry about _because_ of the water cycle. Leech enough harmful chemicals into the water and it becomes the entire watershed's problem.
I'm glad someone else commented on this (and sad I had to scroll through so many comments before finding one person who questioned the environmental and water impact).
@@raquels. I question the hypocrisy of Hollywood actors preaching about the environment. You know why they do it.
the earthquake scene in the 2012 film seems similar to what happened in Palu during liquefaction in 2018. if we hear from survivors they say, at that time an earthquake occurred, then they left the house, when outside the house suddenly the road split open, one side went up and one side is like being under, and suddenly the ground is covered again and piled up people. And then the solid ground change to the mud and swept away a village with thousand people
Unbelieveable. Amazing movie effects 👏🏻
I was literally catching my breath while watching the movie *The Impossible,*the entire movie because movies with a lot of water make me uncomfortable
So much resources spent on movies.
Not your money, so why do you care?
I can't wait to live my dream of becoming a voice actor and actor. Love to do mocap as well
Movies 2012 and Sinking of Japan were terrifying at the time.
I can't believe how much work went into the cinematic turkey Pompeii!
I love these types of videos. Thanks for uploading
Love these Movie Insider videos and this one is no less fascinating, thank you for sharing! The scene from "The Impossible" wasn't "climactic", as it happened near the start, not at the climax. It was certainly cataclysmic though... That film is outstanding.
Just beautiful how creative we can be...
Wow just wow, enjoyed every bit of this,give us more.
It is too bad many of these movies are forgotten bc it's happening in real life .damn
Practical Effects in these types of movies is so cool
It's amazing Hollywood studios🔥
The Day After Tomorrow is my favourite disaster movie. ❤️
Love these type of videos
The most difficult thing in removing the green screen and changing the background when the camera is moving freely. That is tracking. :) if there is a glitch you can see the mistakes. :)
How can a movie that's not even finished be "known for its practical effects"? In fact, how can it be "known" for anything if it doesn't even exist yet?
Mad Max? That came out in 2015
Previous movies from the past that follow the story did practical stuff
What do you mean? all the movies on here are released.
2012 is not a movie that I am interested in, but the earthquake in the movie 2012 made me watch ...These people are very genius
And here we see it in just 2-3 hrs and don't even realise the off camera struggles.
So much knowledge gained today thanks
I liked Mad Max Fury Road and the Impossible. I saw Pompeii and OMG!! No one can out run a pyroclastic flow in a car much less a horse!
Extraordinary
Thanks for the video!
Then MCU overused CGI just to remove all practical effects and expenses
Pretty smart
Mcu films aren't cheap...
giving life to vfx artists
And it looks crappy for that reason, the money they spend they should be doing real effects
Reminds me of millons of news programs shown for decades !
Dang, that's alot of water waisted all for a movie
Water is only wasted if it’s scarce.
@@CT-vm4gf oh ok. Thanks and Happy Holidays.
Finally, i have the secrets.
Silly comment. If these were "secrets," the movie makers wouldn't release the "how we do it" videos.
You really need to think before making such statements.
This is professional jobs, amazing
I love this
Beautiful stuff.
I always wondered how a lot of this was filmed.....crazy what theyll go thru just to get 'the shot'
So amazing very good❤️👏
500,000 TONS of steel for the movie 2012? A BILLION pounds of steel? That can't be right.
Yeah that's like 12 Bismarck, unlikely really.
Yeah i dont think that was in their budget
That's because it's not right ;)
Great work👍👍👍
They need to give some of these movie assets out to the public
Sometimes knowing how something has been done ruins the movie, but it's so cool to know just how much effort it takes!!!😎👍🇨🇦
super amazing behine the scene this is we call super epic
I saw both 2012 and San Andreas. Kinda had the same story. Couple separating, disaster happens which brings them back together.
At least Day After Tomorrow had a good story.
This is actually interesting
I love disaster movies.
Love this. Sounds like she has a bit of a cold though
Perfect 👏👏👏
Damn genius 👍
Now I know why I can't film rain as those movies did.
Awesome.
I watched this video the night before my first ever earthquake so my brain went instantly into panic mode... ahaha
Damn I still couldn’t even afford that mini house… thanks America
500.000 Tons of steel? that's like 5 USS Nimitz (CVN-68) air craft carriers of steel to make a cheesy movie:-)
You actually can make a fire twister using practical special effects. You would have to make it inside a building.
I feel bad for the stuntman just hanging and flying around for the fire tornado scene
He enjoyed it, it’s his career and good money.
Damn, all that water
I truly think Insider are one of only channels that are not biased and suck up marvel Disney shits, love it
Daystar Approves!
Thank god, i thought the video was not approved so i couldn't enjoy it without your approval
I’m glad I’m not scared of these movies when I watched this
Yet, in day after tomorrow 12.05 , NOBODY had the time to research how to behave in freezing temperatures? I'm still pis*ed off of the guy REMOVING his gloves to hold on to f'in glass! Like, no bro, you wouldn't. The pain of it would make you wanna jump down the hole yourself...
Yup. I was born and raised in northern lower Michigan, suffered severe frostbite when I was six years old---didn't lose my fingers or toes, thankfully, but also couldn't use them for a few days---so I know the effects of extreme cold all too well. That particular scene, plus a few others, bothers me a lot, so I no longer bother to watch the movie, no matter if there's "nothing else" to see (I like to re-watch only a few movies, not being a real movie aficionado).
Twister (1996) is still the best disaster movie.
I would love if George Miller did a remake of the movie "Water World" . How he made Mad Max-Fury road .. I think he would kill it remaking that movie. Mind as well , the movie is pretty much Mad Max on water. Of course , that's if George Miller got the OK to do it.
According to the Blu-ray bonus feature for "Into The Storm", they did try and film an artificial fire tornado, but it only grew to a hundred feet in height.
1:16 "The crew went through 500,000 tons of steel". No they didn't!
Wow interesting film yeay style cool😲😎😊✌️
PHilippines Should Learn This type of editing it would be awesome
That palm trees scene from impossible still freaks me 😂
I just finished watching san andreas like 3 mins ago before came across this
all this hard work and innovation for some of the worst movies ever lol
I wanna see how they did Sharknado, damnit! (bangs on table with anger)
0:43 thought that was a tram lol
If only video games could be this good
The Impossible is a Spanish movie filmed near Alicante, in the eastern mediterranean coast of the country. The film studios are now closed.
