    One thing to note: the reason that trailers for Final Fantasy games look so good is because Square Enix kept the studio that made Spirits Within open and they kept improving. So, the reason that those trailers look like they could be from movies is because they literally could.

    • @santishorts
      @santishorts 3 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      Not completely accurate. Square Pictures, the studio that made Spirits Within, only ever made one other thing and that was the short "Final Flight of The Osiris" for The Animatrix. After that Square Pictures pretty much closed shop. Contrary to popular belief, the studio was not based in Japan, it was based in Hawaii and some of the people there may have moved on to work on (then) Square and thus on some of the Final Fantasy cutscenes of that era (post 2003). But Square Pictures as a studio very much ended probably not long after The Matrix project was done.

    Terminator 2 has some amazing practical effects as well. Including hiring Linda Hamilton's twin sister to do a mirror shot with arnold while hamilton did some surgery with dummy arnold's skull. Also very interesting use of background projection throughout the film especially in the opening future scenes. I don't know if you covered it already on this channel but might be worth looking at.

    my favorite part of Ghostbusters is the fact that nearly every ghost is a dude or a set of dudes in a puppet of the desired ghost and have the blue screen for the background and to get them to look like ghosts they use a plethora of 80s and 90s digital effects to make a puppet look all misty and glowing and semitransparent on screen that's what makes the iconic Ghostbusters so real feeling is that they use zero CGI which was available at the time in the shooting of the movie it's all practical effects that have 80s and 90s digital effects to make puppets look like real ghosts making the movie much more believable cause it looks so real on screen and realism is something you can't fully get with CGI
