Just bear in mind that if you take the total budget of this film and add Barbie's total budget on top of it, both films combined cost less money to make than the Flash.
What I love most about this movie is that I can literally ***see*** that the whole Nolan's team was working at some heavenly level. Now seeing how it was built is just so amazing.
Crazy that there was no Oval Office set available to use, it must be one of the most reproduced locations in TV appearing in almost every political thriller.
I'm surprised they didn't try to to contact Truman's Presidential Library to use their one, since you know the Oval Office there was part of the President they were filming of.
I am not sure. You've got Poor Things, Napoleon, Killers of the Flower Moon and Barbie which should be locked. Then, the remaining spot would be between Wonka, Maestro, Asteroid City, A Haunting in Venice and Oppenheimer for example. Anyways, it will for sure be nominated just for being called Oppenheimer.
Having worked as a draftsman and CAD technician for well over 25 years and worked in civil engineering, mechanical engineering, architectural and land surveying, all of this was super interesting to me and I understood clearly everything she brought out in detail concerning the excellent drawings and lay out. Kudos to all those involved in this incredible project and bringing it to life. Can't wait to see the actual movie.
When the best of the best in their particular field collaborate, you get this masterpiece. Production designers, director, DP, art directors, composer, actors, editor. Awesome.
180+ page script shot (principal photography) in 57 days!!! mad genius of a crew!! there is a blockbuster story to be written about Nolan making a film about how he makes films !!
Y'all should respect the thousands of hours that was put into the CGI and VFX of Oppenheimer. It's already bad enough how many of the artists didn't get a credit at the end of the film
I really don't understand why they have to rebuild the Oval Office and spend budget for every single movie? Why don't they create just one replica and then rent it out for every movie. There are so many movies shot with that scenery that it would make sence
Christopher Nolan isn't a Writer/Director. He has co-written most of his films with his brother Jonathan Nolan who is very largely the main writer up his last two films.
Respectfully@@barborab9343 it's not that you don't like CGI, it's that you don't like when you can tell that it is cgi. I promise there are hundreds of movies you enjoy, that you would never have guessed had hundreds or thousands of CGI shots
Interesting that it was called Trinity Avenue then. I lived there and it was Trinity Drive I lived on. But Central was the main road where example Fuller Lodge is.
Wow this was a great video!!! I had started watching this movie but then stopped because I lost interest because I'm boring..but this actually made me want to finish watching it.. getting the inside of it really made me want to watch it
really nice documentary, but please stop editing between medium and close up shots of the speaker so quickly, or at all, very hard to concentrate on what she's saying, and doesn't add anything to the interview.
CGI means Computer-Generated Imagery, means a specific thing: entire images produced using computer. Gargantua in Interstellar is CGI, digitally remove the cables holding McConaughey in the tesseract isn't CGI. There's no CGI in Oppenheimer, not a single image was digitally produced. They used digital VFX to modify some details on shot, for example to remove cables or so. Anyway the VFX shot in Oppenheimer are around 200, a lot less than Parasite for example. You simply can't use CGI with IMAX without losing quality. Invisible CGI is an oxymoron.
Oh for sure, but first of all, those sets didn't have to hold up to scrutiny under the immense detail of IMAX cameras, but also, the industry has really changed. Studios don't like it, investors don't like it, it's much more expensive mainly because craft workers are generally unionized and receive fair wage while CGI artists are often pushed and exploited without repercussions. It's been done in the past, and on this scale, too, but to do it in the modern industry is a feat in itself
This comment made me cringe soooo hard... the 3D plan is for construction purposes, they LITERALLY talked about how they used the stoftware to help build the sets
@@JamesWestMusicMan Exactly they literally talk about it so why use that title. That title made me cringe, the undertone that it's somehow bad to use CGI or an accomplishment to not use it is childish. Not to mention that for the movie plenty of shots were worked on by CGI artists. Don't get my wrong I love practical effects and miniatures, but the CGI industry doesn't get the respect they deserve and this is another example.
The fact that they filmed the whole movie in 57 days makes this even more incredible
I don’t beleive you… actually?

Ruth de Jong says that in this video at 9:40
is that long or is that short
@@Centre14short. very. very short.
She still hasnt caught up on the sleep by the looks of things

Incredible, really
crazy to think about
thats INSANE
And that’s why flash is the greatest movie of all time… BUT THAT’S JUST A THEORY
It took them over a decade to make the flash so yeah checks out
9:41 I'm sorry what? They shot this entire masterpiece of a movie in less than 2 months? That's insane!

Since plans for using the Nixon Library (east of LA) fell through, I wonder if they contacted the Reagan Library (northwest of LA).
Honestly that's probably why it was hard to find; more than likely in use somewhere else
Note to self:
Build an oval office. Send note to Hollywood production designers, along with a ridiculous rental fee.
Doesn't Tyler Perry's have an entire white house replica on his lot in Atlanta
I'm surprised they didn't try to to contact Truman's Presidential Library to use their one, since you know the Oval Office there was part of the President they were filming of.
Ruth is awesome and deserves a Oscar nomination for Oppenheimer.
Ah yes, the politics of Hollywood behind the video
Honestly i don't know how is it not locked for the Oscar in production design

I’m stressed just listening to it, bulding the oval office for 24 hours straight for a week
I was really impressed by the set designs, and it's wonderful to see how they were created.

I love watching these videos where we see such brilliant minds at the top of their game discussing their creative processes
"You have to build this."

Then just walks away 😂
I respect her and the crew so much for building the Oval Office that fast. ✊
Felt the pain in her voice when she said they shot it in 57 days
They handled everything so well and so fast that it is mindblowing
She looks like she could use a hug and Costco-sized bottle of wine after working that film 😂
Wow that’s wild. I love hearing the stories of those behind the camera that are just as, if not more, vital to the movie
She is the icon and the moment
There was such a physical and solid authenticity to the set.
Espero que a Ruth De Jong seja indicada ao Oscar, ela fez um trabalho realmente incrível.
This woman rules.
Thank you for helping make a great film, Ruth!
This was so interesting! I look forward to seeing this
This was such an interesting insight as to what went on the behind the scenes of this movie!! loved it!!
Great team!

amazing film. done so well and deserves all the awards coming its way.
it probably written in the contracts that they have to say no cgi... and while that might be ture, there is loads of vfx

It is no CGI at all

Nolan and Tarantino, the Writer/Director geniuses who still now stay true to art and practical effects!
Christopher Nolan isn't a Writer/Director. He has co-written most of his films with his brother Jonathan Nolan who is very largely the main writer up his last two films.
you cann add denis vileneuve to the group as well I think
Nolan uses VFX and cgi, he is just very meticulous with how he uses it. There isn't anything wrong or "less of an art" with vfx or cgi
@@Obie. I personally don't like huge CGI....like Avatar....for example...

Incredible person, crew, and team.
I learned in film school that a script for a movie is "1 page a day, 1.5 if you're lucky"
Yeah....bout that....
11/10!!!!!
VERY cool
What is the music in the background?
That's wild only took 57 days to create a master piece.
Thank you.
Who else thinks that she looks beautiful😍
This is so very interesting to me!
Truly incredible
this lady is goated
Nolan wanted even the crews to feel like they are going through what the united states did with los alamos
So what happened to it after the movie was done filming? did they destroy it?
This is cinema
She deserves an Oscar.
Interesting!
So impressive, I wonder why the Reagan Library wasn't an option.
Wow
HALF LIFE WAS IN NEW MEXICO?! OMG PLEASE MR NOLAN
Working 6-8 weeks 1:1 haha Chris is such an introvert
Get ready it's going to be a storm at the Academies
That opening story is art department summarized….classic
really nice documentary, but please stop editing between medium and close up shots of the speaker so quickly, or at all, very hard to concentrate on what she's saying, and doesn't add anything to the interview.
woww
And the DMV can’t get my new license to me in less than three weeks 😠
8:48
My head hurts. I have worked in construction. No.
THIS is filmmaking
Hot take but I think Nolan was wrong in not using CGI to give Los Alamos its proper scale just as he was wrong for doing the same thing in Dunkirk.
Hi did use CGI in many other scene however
Which is more beautiful?
So basically every film making it out of wood
Those who call out Nolan for not using CGI should compare the budget of The Flash & Oppenheimer.
He does use CGI, just lying about it
Nolan uses CGI in every movie he has made in the last 20 years...
@@ocdvfxproof it

I guess none of you were around for the preceding 50 or 60 years of practical effects in movies - Pre CGI
Pretty please do the skibidi toilet plumber reacts video
Well, they had 100 million dollars, and built the sets.
They worked tf outta her ! She can barely smile
😍😍
AmI missing something? Didn't they used to do this for every movie?

i hate this "no cgi" obession that people have.. noone these days uses 0 cgi.. oppenheimer as well
ok
This was better than the movie itself
No.
Arent ther a bunch of permanent oval office sets in LA for rent?

how is it clickbait. it is true
@@MikeMiller-zc1xf it kinda is...

It's one of the film's most important selling points. It's just about money and popularity...
Oh, you wanted to get paid, AND take it easy? 9:38
please stop using term "without/no cgi". no need to lie. thank you.
It's the truth
They have no reason to lie... so they probably didn't use CGI. Use your little grey cells
@@lexkanyima2195 it's the marketing
Oppenheimer is full of CGI practical effects make a better CGI stop the anti-CGI rhetoric

? Hater much?
All sets are built without CGI. You put that in afterwards.
No, there is no proof for CGI At all
Please stop saying no CGI. It's NOT a flex. CGI was used everywhere in this come on...
Once again, someone mixing up CGI and Visual Effects. Yes they probably did use Visual Effects for a lot of the movie, but for very miniscule things.
@@JamesWestMusicMan You truly do not know what youre talking about. Miniscule things, lmao stfu nunce
