Did You Even Know That These Scenes In Movies Were Actually CGIs?
In this article, we examine a number of CGI examples that we weren't even aware of. We've studied CGI-like effects from the pre-CGI era as well as scenes that appeared to be CGI but weren't. We’ve also giggled at how goofy CGI-heavy scenes look without it, and we’ve even cried looking at cases of awful digital effects. That was distressing. Here, though, we focus on realistic, non-flashy CGI that in another dimension could have easily just been practical effects. In that dimension your chair would also be real, but now that we say it that just sounds strange. Seriously, take a look at the wheels. That is just hurried compositing, sorry. FX workers of the world, unite!
