    Really good work guys, Richard's face looks fantastic. Always thought the rest of his face was just makeup and only the hollow eye socket was CGI. Great work all round

    This is really picky, but the lighting is wrong in the scene at 2:13 looking out the window onto the train tracks.
    The shadows in the window are cast from a sun to the left, while the shadows on the ground from the men and the car are cast from a sun on the right.
    Hey, I wish I was doing work so great that people wanted to look so closely at it! :)

    I don't believe in anything anymore.
  • Agreed, it looks like all you need is a green screen nowadays...
  • Cloudy Project 3 weeks ago
    And talent. And thousands of dollars in software. Camera rigs that work from motion track data. A couple dozen people with specialized skills. Creativity, a great eye for lighting, virtual modelers, light riggers and texture mappers. And a lot of money. Yeah, and a green screen or two.
