Nothing is real anymore....

I don't know why I'm still amazed by the outstanding level of VFX work involved in features - but I am. Check out this making of short looking at the opening titles of "Enter the Void". French visual effects studio BUF completed nearly 350 vfx shots for the film. It's absolutely fantastic work. (Originally spotted over at Motionographer)

Unbuttoned...

The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button has not been met with unanimous praise from the punters, despite its success picking up gongs, globes, masks and probably very soon some Oscars.

However, it would be hard to deny that the VFX work within the film is brilliant, and this micro-site allows you to delve deeper into the methods they used to age and reverse-age the actors in this film.

I truly believe that top-flight VFX work (when used appropriately of course!) allows filmmakers to realise their wildest visions on screen, and is constantly knocking down visual barriers and frontiers. Check out the site, and see what you think.
