I showed Netflix's "Love Death + Robots: Ice Age"[1] to several people and no one noticed it's CGI until I pointed it out. Even then I had to point out particular details until they really believed it.

- jrootabega 5y agoEven Topher Grace and the other one? Or just the stuff in the freezer?
- dnissley 5y agoAll I can find by searching is that this episode was the only one to include live action (IMDb trivia, for example: https://m.imdb.com/title/tt9788514/trivia/?ref_=tt_trv_trv https://m.imdb.com/title/tt9788514/trivia/?ref_=tt_trv_trv) -- what makes you think it's cgi?
- seizethegdgap 5y agoYeah, no, not the parts with Topher and MEW. If that was CGI, then that would be a reality-shattering jump far past the uncanny valley.
- laumars 5y agoThere’s a reason they didn’t believe you. I mean there’s obviously parts of that short that did make use of CGI but clearly it’s predominantly live action
- Philip-J-Fry 5y agoEh? The CGI is in the freezer sure, the man and woman are 100% live action. But who didn't notice that? Or do they think a miniature civilisation actually did exist?
- jrootabega 5y agoThey could have filmed some of the freezer stuff live and then overlayed it on the other stuff
- laumars 5y agoTo me that looks exactly how they had done a lot of the freezer stuff. Sure there was some CGI in there too. But most of it looked like classical camera effects (time lapsing, special lenses, etc) rather than computer generated assets.
