Building Pacific Rim's Giant Conn Pod
Special Effects supervisor Shane Mahan of Legacy Effects details the many stages it took to create the unique, massive conn-pod machinery for Guillermo Del Toro's PACIFIC RIM. From design, testing, additive manufacture and mold making to construction and assembly, watch how the twelve-foot-high hydraulic arms were created and attached to the pilot suits.

I'm so glad you guys did this with animatronics instead of CG :)
Well, Its a combination of both
Honestly if they made the Conn Pod at Disney the line would be so long that you'd have to reserve your seat in line months before. An it'd still be amazing.
VenomKpp I feel like you’d already have to do that for any of the existing rides
Just a shame that Pacific Rim ain't Disney :P
Mystic2760 good tho they would ruin it
@@JangoBricks kinda agree tbh.
@@Mystic2760 thank god Pacific Rim isn't Disney
What if, they made a virtual reality Pacific Rm game, like an arcade game, but using an actual Conn-Pod set. Oh LAWD!!
Hell.... yeah....
Agreed
That'll be so sick
Hell yeah!! It'd be real expensive though...I don't know if many people would wanna invest in that.
I imagine how painful it will be
This is mindblowing.
When you show the huge Con-Pod short clips, the actors moving, the water canon...
My mind just... EXPLODED !!!
Best VR experience ever.
I just cant stop imagine of using a machine like that, to build a virtual reality video game.
.... imagine it with a rift oculus. man how awesome it could be..
I would likely be called the "Drift Oculus" if they partnered up to create such a gaming stage lol
I actually thought the conn pod shots were CG until I saw a massive set of one in a behind the scenes video. It's so well done that I thought they simply took the lazy route of using CG, but just pulled it off incredibly well.
In uprising, the pilots are literally just attached to a stick
yes
Like they are doing fucking jumps in a conn pod
@@Powaaaaaaa it looks bad summary
also they have no arm thing, and just running on a treadmill
it's not even a stick, just cables attached in their back
@@royalwalnutbroth5664 yeah, and you can't even put it to technology, the pilot has to feel the Jaeger, not the Jaeger feel the pilot, meaning the pilot needs to feel the restraints, and there is no way of doing that that doesn't require some sort of handle back, like how the connpods have it, so thats a heavily unrealistic part of uprising.
DEL TORO RULES!!!
@@Nat20streak no. He better reject second movie, consider it as a joke and start making an ACTUAL second movie!!
@@Nat20streak indeed
That's the difference .....what's lack in Uprising.
Indeed :) Glad to see more people who agree on this.

It's passion, uprising doesn't see like they're put effort and passion into the film.
YES, Passion! totally Agree.
As well as the clips of the conn pods in the trailers showing the lack of movement of the conn pod set even though the pilots are sliding, spinning, kicking, and getting punched, backhanded, and thrown around like a ragdoll. The conn pods visor was static.
The first movie made it feel like the jaegers' heads were "locked" to the pilots' head movement. Where the pilots are looking, the jaeger is also looking.
But in uprising, namely bracer phoenix, where they performed a limbo slide to avoid a thrown gypsy avenger, the pilots were looking up at the conn pod's ceiling with a holographic representation of gypsy above their heads. Why would they need that when simply looking at the giant visor would suffice and make sense? Currently, it looks less like being inside giant yet relatively agile robots, and more like being inside an augmented reality set with no hydraulics to simulate head bobbing.
DJ Weapon yes.i was actually looking for people review about the conn pod. I feel the same, some of the scenes just doesn't make sense at all. Just hard to believe that they are inside the giant robot ...more like they are running on some high tech treadmill..damn.
It is so amazing that now I even can tell what you have contributed in a movie. Nobody does metallic surfaces and machinery look more convincing then Legacy EFX!
Same here. I was actually very surprised at how little CG was used for this.
The magic of this will be lost in the sequel
Has lost.
They effed up the sequel
offff prediction
Ayo future man, why u not warn em?!! Damn
@@Wolfboy_109 the warnings did not come
but at least The black is good
Loved this movie! Thanks for making it great LE!
were any kaiju hurt in the making of this video?
yes
douchebag patrol llloo
*BIG TIME*
GREAT work. This kind of dedication is what what made me feel like I was right next to the pilots. It FELT powerful and dangerous.
The conn pods were so well designed!
respect for all these practical effects, most directors now days would use CGI, but Del Toro knows whats people want to see.
Everytime i watch a behind the scenes all i can think about is how long did this stuff take like this looks like years of work and writing and measurments but then you find out it only took weeks or months the movie world is a crazy industry and i love it!
Genial producción, gran trabajo
this is insanely awesome!
That is insane! Great work guys!
Now open it to the public!
INSANE JOB, BIG UP to LEGACY EFFECTS
You guys are so awesome. The movie looked great because of your guys' hard work, dedication, and love put into making these props
this si sick, i love that you guys are posting these!
outstanding work!
Amazing stuff
This is jaw-dropping stuff.
everybody that making this movie are incredible, they are not human💥
*GRACIAS POR COMPARTIR* 😃 SALUDOS DESDE MÉXICO ‼️☁️
Amazing video
Looks, feels, and is better than Uprising.
So cool and crazy! Especially at 2:26-2:30!
great job
I will work for you, for free.
No, I will pay you to let me work in your studio!
I can scrub toilets!!!
not cool, dude
not cool at all

*Because it's been 6 FCKING YEARS in which whole person can change*
So cooool
Awesome.
i want more pacific rim!!!!
대단하네요
Amazing job ;-)
I LOVE It
Wow good 👌
too Awesome!
cool
What if just what if, we use that huge machine to play video games? oOHH...
Cool
Like
Yes
👍
love this movie want a prequel to see tacit ronin, victory alpha, romeo blue and horizon brave
I was thinking about a similar system to a book of mine. Although there the pilot would be bound at the waist and then free to wiggle around. This stuff hanging from the ceiling is awesome too but not very practical.
Still, you have my respect. And my thumbs up! :-)
that legit looks so fucking sick
good
How someone comes up and designs this is beyond me
Wow I want to work there
It’d be awesome to be in one of those rigs tbh! Who’s with me?
Where can I get one of these!? It looks so awesome!!!
Legacy effects We are waiting for ur work in 2.0
WE ARE GETTING IN THR FUTURE BOYS
SketchUp FTW.
Show us the crimson typhoon helmet
Robot? Wow
It’s like there actually building the jaeger
We need a C.R. pacific rim with you in the con pod fighting jaegers or kaiju
MK 1 : A lot of cable in conn pod
MK 4 : Wireless
Yeah... I imagined the same thing. Like if they were somehow able to make an amusement park ride based off the conn-pods.
They were actually in a giant mech head!!!!!
tyty
wow so awesome treet in pacific rim giant robot hu
Fuck this shit is fucking awsome!
This is prop porn, and I love it. Keep it up!
Guess what's missing from Uprising
Style and mythic symbolism in my opinion
суперррр
ಸೂಪರ್
Who knew advanced VR was already done in 2013
This is the ONLY thing uprising needs
Ông ơi ông ra phần 3 đi ông ơi
Stil amazing antil now
What happens if some one stole that and has an actual conn-pod build
Cuando vi la película por primera vez creí que los robots,kaiju y armaduras eran de verdad y mi madre me dijo que no eran dé verdad pero yo sigo creyendo qué son dé verdad aunque no lo sean😏😉🐶
¿No ay mas vídeos de Titanes del pacífico?
woooooo
what if pacific rim is real but still in progress
Damn, I just love this movie so much!
Not a fan of the black nor uprising.
Pacific Rim Simulator pls
or maybe use 'em for a sequel. :D
And to think we went from this to teenagers doing backflips with 2000 tons robots...
Was that 3d max or Maya i saw... just wondering
I want to make my own at home conn pod
Grand fix how do the stand up with out tipping over
Is' my dream to have this
They didn't need to make the conn-pod for Coyote because there was never any scenes inside it.
I can only imagine that for the Russians getting water thrown at them constantly for the fight scene , it would be hard to breath for air and call a time out when they need it badly
This is What was missing in the sequel.
It says click but you cannot click the video lmao
I wonder which country the helmet on the far left was for.
LoopDeLoop coyote search it up
the name is like the man behind the slaughter but its called pacific rim behind the scene
So they use autodesk for the computer work, interesting
Maya specifically. It's the most popular software for hard surface stuff without a doubt.
I knew the cockpit look too real for CG, I was right
In relaity the building of 4 Yeagers would bankrupt the US. If you know anything about engineering...a project on that massive of a scale would #1 be caught up in research and development for 20 years. You'd have to draft schematics, blueprints, special weapons technology, find a secret local so massive that you would probably end up having to excavate large areas of land. You have to import materials, parts, and manpower. The sheer number of workers, labor hours, transportation cost, housing cost, food cost, fuel cost, etc. Keep in mind....all this I mentioned is before you actually start to construct one. Also the first one you build would be a prototype. You'd spend 2 to 3 years working the kinks out of that one. Then once you build a fully functioning one, how would you get it live action experience? Its not a human that you can send to boot camp. Id estimate to build 1 functioning Yeager in real life would cost probably 700 Billion dollars for one.
*****....I definitely understand, but in the intro of my comment I stated "In reality"
I think I would disagree, war and potential annihilation would speed up the process quite a lot, and since that is what this machine is made for, then it follows that it would be like any wartime technology project. Crude, fast, and functional. I think they took a realistic approach in the movie, they built the Mach 1 in 14 months, but didn't shield the pilots from the radiation as well as they should have. That seems mostly like what would happen in reality. Look at the Manhattan Project, possibly one of the biggest undertakings in weaponry and it took no more than 4 years.
Setxboy I mean if all of mankind is about to be demolished by giant monsters they would stop caring about the money and pool resources into building the Jaegers
UGG Films .....Are you sure? 400 years of slavery, The kidnap, murder and rape of a specific group of people from class to half a millineum. In addition the worlds powers at the time all conspired. Over 100,000,000 people.... Exterminated. I'd watch my words before I assume mankind cares about anything but mankind.
i'm late, but I like it how everyone is arguing about "reality" when in reality they wouldn't even have built giant mechs in the first place. They would probably design some sort of flying machine, with maybe one of those highly effective plasma cannons that they have, or just a nuclear minefield around the rift, or something. Anything would be easier, cheaper, and more efficient than giant mech suits.
Can Kinect give feedback?
