Pacific Rim got snubbed at the Oscars. I know Gravity's effects were amazing and all, but why didn't Pacifc Rim at least get recognized while The Lone Ranger did?
That's why i love this film so much. It's one of the most badass movie ever made. No matter how much you hate (or dislike) the story and etc., you can't hate how amazing the effects are.
A century of cinema has brought us here. This features incredible work from every department. Sound, pre-production, production, post-production, etc. Getting this done in just over 2 years seems totally insane to me, so if any of you are still alive, buy yourself a few drinks. If you've been paid, buy yourself a vacation. You fugging deserve it!
I cannot praise ILM Visual FX enough for what they do on this channel! As a young man who wants to be a part of the film industry, I really like how you give us all a taste into what its like behind the scenes with both VFX breakdowns and commentaries from the men and women who actually create the effects! Thank you and keep up the good work!
YAY! I loved Pacific Rim! You'd better win the Oscar this year. But then, the Oscars are crap. You've got a figurative award from me for being the best! ILM for the win!
I wonder when CGI companies start hiring the screenplay writers, actors and directors and start owning the movie instead of the other way around. They already do practically 80% of the movie.
So basically you're waiting for a day when a salesperson is going to take over a shop? Because technically they are doing 90% of the work. No matter how good they are,they will always be just the guys who do the effects,and if they get cocky,quite soon new ones will pop up.
I absolutely love this type of behind the scenes (deconstructing a scene, CGI models, etc), but to break 2 years of work into a 3-minute video.... (even aside from the extras on the blueray)
One has to recognize and thank you guys for not only show the behind the scenes but go out of your way and prepare such amazing breakdowns of the scenes. Trully inspiring. I thought I'd have tons of questions, but everything is so clearly shown that it's almost a tutorial. This left me with a smile on my face. Hopefully there will be a sequel to the movie so I can see more of you guys work. Congratulations!
wow that was quite amazing. Unlike other movies I felt immersed in the visual effects of this movie. You guys played a key role in that and that makes me happy. Top notch is under-selling the talent that went into this movie.
I hope someday I work on a movie as epic as this with people as talented as the team from ILM Great stuff guys and girls =] I could watch your breakdowns and VFX vids all day.
I loved the lighting effects and that everything felt weighty. The only effect that I thought was kinda weird was the jiggling on the Kaiju the Aussies killed early in the movie.
Could you guys make a video like this showcasing the water effects of Pacific Rim? they were truly phenomenal. The water brought the whole film to life in my opinion. I'd love to see how the Battle for Hong Kong scene in the harbor was done from different perspectives
Beautiful! And thank you very much for posting this. I haven't loved a movie like this in a long time. May I ask a question though? Is the panelling on Gipsy Danger's chest hull physically modelled, or is it a mixture of textures, normal maps/ displacement? Thanks again!

Best CGI I've ever seen.

Eyegasm
AMAZING!!! BEST MOVIE EVER!!!
So basically, we're watching a really good 3D cartoon.
I absolutely love this type of behind the scenes (deconstructing a scene, CGI models, etc), but to break 2 years of work into a 3-minute video.... (even aside from the extras on the blueray)
ILM and WETA are the two top CGI-for-movie companies as of today
Great film, Great VFX

You guys are freakin amazing, makes me sad abit.. cuz i'll never be like you.

wow that was quite amazing. Unlike other movies I felt immersed in the visual effects of this movie. You guys played a key role in that and that makes me happy. Top notch is under-selling the talent that went into this movie.
You guys really out did your self (IMO), with Pacific Rim, thanks.

This is AMAZING!
Marvelous!
I hope someday I work on a movie as epic as this with people as talented as the team from ILM Great stuff guys and girls =] I could watch your breakdowns and VFX vids all day.
Impressive! The fluid simulations were almost seamless. How much time did this take you guys?
What the humans are doing is just adorable and fascinating
I loved the lighting effects and that everything felt weighty. The only effect that I thought was kinda weird was the jiggling on the Kaiju the Aussies killed early in the movie.
Frickin marvelous
I did not know that this was made by light & magic, great ^^
You guys are incredible! If there is an eight wonder of the world, then ILM has got to be it ;)

Its amazing they make the metal look real even though its not metal at all
genious!!
I'm learning how to do some of this in school using 3ds max… i think i might switch majors now
Effects contributed
Esta es mi película favorita y ver como se hizo es realmente increíble!! :'D
Insane!!! and very inspiring!!
one word amazing
Great job
that was sick.
No Oscar nominations for Pacific Rim.
Today... they have reinstated THE APOCALYPSE!
So nifty!
Inspiring...
Are you gonna do a longer one with interviews like the one you did with The Lone Ranger ? It was great anyway, keep up the great work !
This is some seriusly epic VFX work. BTW, how long did it take to render the scene at 0:48?
Beautiful! And thank you very much for posting this. I haven't loved a movie like this in a long time. May I ask a question though? Is the panelling on Gipsy Danger's chest hull physically modelled, or is it a mixture of textures, normal maps/ displacement? Thanks again!
Astonishing. Just to get an idea, how many people are in each team? Modelling, rigging, animating, etc...?
Masterpiece
This is amazing! How many people tend to work on shots like these ?
ILMVisualFX is the best!
That... is... A W E S O M E.
No one is considering making Mazinger Z?
Thanks very much for the video. The demolition simulations were jaw dropping. In house software or rayfire?.
awesome!!!!
PART 2 PLEASE !!!!!
0:56 Are they useing Minecraft effects too? O_O
i really want to study this kind of job activity.
how is it properly called?
wow nice there so many but tnk uvery much ;D
Visual-effects-Artist.
I know that 3ds max is used daily at ILM. However, more specifically, how often is Thinking Particles used?
I'm hopin' this or Gravity wins Best Visual Effects, guys!
epic!!!!
I wonder how much time did the fluids simulation took... Great stuff!!!
