    Holy shit, I only just now realized the destroyed San Fran was fake, I didn't even think about it in terms of being a set or anything, I just accepted it, it was totally believable, nice work!
    Anyway, this film has three levels of realism.
    There's Caesar - looked great, but he still looked CGI, I guess because his face was more human-like than the others.
    Koba - if you didn't focus on it he looked absolutely real.
    Maurice - try as I might I couldn't see the artificiality. Maurice looked like a real Orangutan 100%. It's TRULY amazing work.

    As a blender noob it was super interesting. I watched it having in mind that there are people who made all that CGI and I was amazed. Before doing any 3D modeling I never paid attention to such things. Great job!

    Even though "Gravity" was a great movie in terms of visuals... I mean, oh well, 90% of the screen space was taken up by black space most of the time. And yeah, there were some amazing scenes, but.
    But.
    "Dawn of the Planet of the Apes" contains a lot more of them. The lighting work, the fur, and animation are just insane. How challenging it is to make speakless characters, for the most part communicating through sign language, truly alive. So that the viewer can understand the character through their body language. My God.
    You did a one hell of a job, even now, rewatching film in 2022, I'm impressed.
