Director Jackson was not the first to use motion capture in a feature film, but he was the first to use it well, and Serkis’ work as Gollum was so persuasive that it helped birth a new kind of acting and filmmaking.

To film flying scenes, the actors had to look at tennis balls and pretend they were something else. The broomstick was a metal pole fitted with a deeply uncomfortable bike saddle. The crew members blew fans in their faces to make it look as if they had the wind in their hair.

When we think of enormous mountains covered in thick ice, the offset scenario from Game Of Thrones might crack us up because of their simplicity. Nonetheless, it is no argument that it is mind-blowing.

#8. The Matrix

The Matrix is an example of the cyberpunk subgenre of science fiction. The film popularized a visual effect known as "bullet time", in which the heightened perception of characters is represented by allowing the action within a shot to progress in slow-motion while the camera appears to move through the scene at normal speed, allowing the sped-up movements of the characters to be perceived normally.

#9. Life Of Pi

The special thing about Life of Pi is that it was the first time the moviemakers did something called remote rendering, where they engaged their cloud infrastructure in Taiwan called CAVE (Cloud Animation and Visual Effects).

#10. Alice In Wonderland

Filming of the green screen portions, comprising 90% of the film, was completed after only 40 days. Many of the cast and crew felt nauseated as a result of the long hours surrounded by green, and director Burton had lavender lenses fitted into his glasses to counteract the effect.
