The reason why there is so much criticism of VFX is because it is often done without any sort of intent or passion. It seems like the director just give a vague description of what sort of effects they want to the VFX team and just hands it off to them. With practical effects, the director is forced to be more hands on, so this intent shows through with the final product.
- pizzaknife 2y agothis is really weird to me. its a fault of the director, if i understand your position on this
- Timon3 2y agoThat's definitely a big part, but especially recently VFX teams really don't have the option to bring in real intent and passion. Scenes are often changing until a few months or even weeks before release, frequently with very tight deadlines, and after months of crunch. There's no way to deliver a good product under these conditions, just look at many of the recent Marvel movies. Practical effects are much harder to change later on, so VFX built on top is also more likely to avoid this ever-changing crunch. But that's also why they are being avoided more and more - it increases cost of changes, and studios won't give up late-stage changes.
