Wolf of Wall Street VFX (video)

  Not to downplay any of this, but this seems like standard compositing done in most movies, and especially TV shows with smaller budgets. Big set pieces, or shooting on location is expensive. The more you can fake, the cheaper it is. For example, any shot in a stadium, or a place like Times Square is often much simpler to fake than to go out there and film on location.

    Right? The whole time I was watching it all I could think was "this really isn't all that impressive". Most of what they did is stuff that's been in movies for decades. There wasn't anything really interesting. I mean, almost all of Revenge of the Sith was digital sets. Avatar's use of the same techniques is much more impressive, especially when you consider they did some rendering on the fly so James Cameron could see the digital world on a screen while filming.

    It's very well done. But in most of the takes you can perceive it's in a green/blue chromakey from the outline of people's hair, some moving takes, etc. Also, the light is not quite 100%. In The Wolf of Wall Street it's very, very well done. Only in one take I could see it was chromakey but even, just because it was being told. If I purely had one look and should guess, I would have said no.
