All the visual effects are made to serve the actors' performances. It's like make-up but put on afterwards so it doesn't restrict the actors' expressions allowing them to give the best performances they can. Hopefully the Academy can understand this and finally nominate Andy Serkis for an Oscar. Hope you guys make more of these videos, loving this channel. Screen Junkies News Emmys 2018 let's go! :P
This is the kind of content that should be on the main screen junkies channel, this was funny and interesting. Compared to the sort of cringy minions memes video that came out a little bit ago this is the kind of thing you want as a first impression
it's nice to see that SJ has gone a long way, i am a subscriber on the main channel for years,back when they only do honest trailers and SJ show. congrats
Wow, this is incredible, you guys. This is pretty good journalism. You have amazing b-roll shots to go with the interviews that provide useful info for the story you're trying to put together. This is pretty good journalism, I'm not gonna lie. I hope we, as an audience, can see more of this content. Great job! (:
I don't know about that but I know Andy's obsession with sending creepy messages to cosplay girls and the allegations of sexual harrasment have been revealed!!!! LMAO ANDY SIGNORE FAAAAAIL
That must have been a blast - I visited Weta and loved the tour, but was always wanting to go outside the tour zone and around a corner to see more behind the scenes.
Thiswas fantastic and I really appreciated it, it is something you just don't get to experience with the comprtition, I really have no problem believing that these guys are real "screen junkies"
How much they paid for this? It must have been so expensive! And before you say they are promoting the movie, so it is for free, I believe it was only the interviews, because the whole mo cap part with cameras and everything, was definitely paid for.
This is exactly why I think MoCap actors shouldn't get nominated for an Oscar. 4:00 Is why a lot of people don't think it's "all actors". I've heard it countless times. "It's all Andy Serkis. His performance is amazing". I agree. His a great actor. Human or not. But the end result is NOT all him. There's a bunch of animators and what not who can tweak his eyes, his eyebrows, the mouth, etc. And when it all adds up, it can look quite different than what he acted in the first place.
They are making adjustments because facial expressions come over different on the ape facial structure sometimes. There is a difference between doing that and somehow changing a performance
mo cap is a great solution then make up but that depend on the situation. One of the many issues with the first planet of the ape reboot was that the make up was amazing but it was heavy and take so long to put together so it end up that the actors have to act while wearing a heavy suit which to majority of actor can not do well. Only a few actor and it so much work. With mo cap it provide a lot least physical stress to the actor.
Seeing Andy get to do his Smaug impression at the ACTUAL same place, brought a single tear to my eye. lol!
Eshna Kabir it was Cumberbatch
WAT
They should show Benedict it on their next interview
He's talking about Andy Signore
Seeing this actually made me appreciate the hard work the people behind the scenes have to do to make these movies
This is why I'm a Screen Junkie! Cool stuff like this! Please keep behind the scenes and talking more with crew coming our way!

Guys, are you gonna visit Hobbiton and places where LOTR was filmed??
he already did. it was andy's segment in an episode of flickbait
Andy doesn't even need the mocap suit, he already looks like an ape.
Just kidding of course. Great video!
I like the new logo, very swish
I always did see Andy as an orangutan
10:06 Now he looks like Jack Black.
Andy THICC!👅
Jean Carlos Ortiz AF

It’s funny because he got fired
When you say, "theatres everywhere", do you mean on the moon, too?

Prevert alert.
