Usually VFX companies have a hard time telling the world about their work. Either they keep their ‘secrets close to their chest’ or they simply lack the skills to communicate well. Lately a certain diss-interest of the public can be added to the list: The fact that something is not real in a movie is not worth mentioning anymore. The bar is much, much higher now. And -of course- ILM in Pirates2 reached it big time with Davy Jones. Their site about the fx is surprisingly good, informative and fun.
While looking at the blogs that link to the ILM page I found this 80’s TV piece
at Visual FX blog.
I had no idea that Lasseter / Disney did try to make “Where the wild things are”.
