      Yeah no kidding. Gareth is my hero to me he is the nirvana of movies. He makes this little diy indie movie, and then directs two movies of my favorite biggest franchises is such a true dream come true thing. Like he seems real a real artist not a mindless Hollywood manufacturer. He now has total freedom. What I love is he has such an eye for lighting, effects, texture, tone. And as a musician i admit I care more about using a bunch of pedals, flanges, delays, reverb making guitars not sound like guitars and the tone and feelings always matters more to me than the overall song structure. Which again my talent has always been creating atmosphere, and depending on my band mates to help create the structure and melodies.

    I think there's something very powerful and understated by the fact of how many times he said "You know, I'm just guessing I have no idea how they actually did all this." Coming from a VFX guy turned Director, I think it speaks to the level of trust he had in the VFX supervisor and the rest of that team that the approach just seemed to be "I trust your expertise, do what you're going to do." and not need to micromanage or get hyper-involved in the process, and just let the results speak for themselves.

    • @theholk
      @theholk 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      But it IS also dangerous, if one doesn't "penny pinch" this effectively to have enough cash to actually "fix it in post". A similar mindset can yield catastrophic results with bloated budgets if that kind "ignorance" (I don't mean it that strongly..) is coupled with unrealistic expectations in terms of time, budget and realistic expectation of effect towards VFX studios. And "actually handing of principal material TO VFX that they can work with" is something that needs to be constant concern, rather than thinking it doesn't matter "the wizards will fix this anyway". So it kind of would have been more perfect if !in hindsight! he knew, if only to be even better at working into their hands in future projects (which the bad kind of "don't know don't care" will never do anyway)

And I was amazed to hear that Edwards had a lot of inspiration for this film from other films I truly love and now after re-watching the film for a second time the bits of detail I missed from watching it in theaters, I truly appreciate the work and time the VFX and CGI team did to make this film feel so real.

    I wish you could bring back Gareth and talk about the space battle scenes in Rogue One (maybe for a May 4th episode??). I am obsessed with how he makes the visuals look so authentic and close to the original trilogy films, especially on where other directors (JJ and Jonson) execute differently. How/what are the secret is that Gareth doing that makes the scenes look in my opinion “just so damn right” is something I really really want to see you guys discuss.
    Please make it happen!

    I like how when they're talking about humanizing the robot concepts and having the front strip of the throat, at 5:00 , he says, "If you remove it. It feels like they're a zombie. Like it's a lifeline." Which is exactly what it is. The front of the neck represents the windpipe, along with other important blood vessels. If you were to see an cg character without that, your brain would instinctively scream it doesn't/can't breathe and would repulse you from it, because not breathing means dead/dying, however the cg is actively moving

A big part of why I love this channel is for these discoveries. Gareth Edwards is brilliant and when he speaks of that magical shot of the old lady giving the baby a candy bar, I must say what makes it so great is the baby accepting the candy bar so genuinely naturally because it is grandma, yet the viewer sees the robot. Brilliant idea and brilliant work Gareth!

      While it may have been worth asking, I very much doubt that the director is involved with the trailers. From what I’ve heard it’s usually a different team that just pulls together what they’ve got from the production so far (which is why you sometimes have shitty trailers that don’t understand what the film/game is about). Saying that, it’s also possible it was stock footage they found.

    On September 15, 2023, during a Reddit AMA with Gareth Edwards, he revealed that the footage was never meant to be included in the trailer in the first place, and that it is typical in filmmaking that archival footage be used as placeholders for VFX shots, while revealing that the shot is not in the film itself.

      it pretty make sens when it’s really archival footage. Footage of a disaster from m’ont weeks, months ago ain’t anymore « archive » and with this dramatic event is just to recent to even use it for tests. Imagine 9 1 1 footages use in a trailer just one year after… the movie would have been just canceled. So a bit sad. there’s enough actual footage of atomic bomb test old enough to be used instead.

  • @sandwiched
    @sandwiched 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I think my favorite thing about the Nomad station's laser was the instant-ness of it. Like, lasers in Star Wars or Terminator, phasers in Trek, etc... they all are beams of light that visually move from the source to the target. But, light doesn't behave that way-at least, not at timescales we mere humans can observe with our eyes. Light's frikkin' fast! So the instant changing of the Nomad laser's shape and whatnot was really neat to see, in part because nobody had ever really depicted laser beams like that before (except perhaps Joss Whedon in Firefly's episode 13 - Heart of Gold... Rance Burgess' laser gun's beam was pretty instant when it was slicing across the house).

    I watch older movies (before 2010), and they feel so much more alive and fun to invest my thoughts and emotions into. They're better written, but I think what really does it is those worldbuilding moments. Everything made nowadays just feels like, "this happened, and then this happened, and then this happened". You can feel the committee of executives on the other side gutting the thing of soul. Those little, slow, quiet moments are important.
