Honestly so much can be done with good comping. This style of VFX has always reminded me of the type of kitbashing done creating physical effects on old movies like Star wars.
When I see amazing tutorials like this, I feel so inadequate and stupid for not realizing the simplicity of these complicated effects lol It looks so good guys. Very impressed with it.
@@mercergreyellis895 ok? and? a vast majority of the content on youtube is referenced? they also never claimed that it was their original idea. so what are you really on about?
Bro, This is NEXT LEVEL Awesome. You can feel the community of film makers you created, you enabled us to do so much with so little mental effort and you made it easy to understand. I love what you've done and you guys are still at it. THANK YOU!
Hey @Film Riot, I've been sub'd to your channel and watching for years. To me, this is the most excellent of many excellent DIY/improvise episodes you have ever produced - well done! I'm simple peasant trying to drag my own oxcart through the village of AE/E3D/Trapcode and your final shot made from sweat, creativity and ingenuity just blew me away.
Damn, it feels good to be reminded of how successful your shot can look just by brute forcing your way through a comp, kit-bashing style! Since learning 3D, unreal, etc I think I've gotten a bit lost in the weeds...this was an important reminder for me of how fun and effective this type of compositing is. Thanks so much!!! 🖤🖤
Incredible how my brain always over complicates things. The entire scene (except the ship) is just pictures! I thought for sure that building was just a 3d model. LOVE IT!
Thank you Ryan! The cussing and the technique is impeccable and I love seeing all of the progress and how easy you make it look. You and your brother makes this accessible for us slightly irregular folks to explore what's possible within SFX. Thank You
As someone who studies VFX and wants to focus on compositing, i know that most film and tv shows especially at higher levels like kenobi are made in nuke, but this just shows that even without the same workflow and software one can still achieve a quite similar result if he knows what he is doing. I am currently working on my showreel and every shot i comp in nuke since thats what i learned for, but i see a lot of more commercial oriented companies who search for 3d artists and compositors that are good with after effects and so i am now also trying to learn after effects to be prepaired for applying everywhere. This video helped me motivating to put more time into after effects since it can be used to do the same things as in nuke, just in a different way!
I always love to watch your demos. It’s not the techniques - which are so cool but rarely applicable to our type of projects. We just don’t want to miss how much love you put into your co-worker interactions and micro-stories. Truly engaging, entertaining and funny stuff. Along the way we end up learning a few things too! Fckn love you fckn guys.
@@mercergreyellis895 I mean the idea wasn't really stolen your friend did it completely in blender (REALLY IMPRESSIVE BTW) While this is mostly stock footage and in AE Also swearing is funny
Nice, pretty quick turnaround too. Not bad at all for a movie-level VFX shot. I love the ingenuity in getting different materials and comps like the base shot/texture.
Dude Ryan that is so cool! The recreation looks so good! Great tips for all kinds of Sci fi and fantasy films. I love that it can be done in AE, aside from the element 3D part. A lot of tutorials require a lot of stock assets or extra plug ins.
@@mercergreyellis895 You're claiming the 1.92 million sub RUclips channel FilmRiot stole an idea from the channel 212 Filmmaking with overwhelming 62 subs? Regarding the video... FilmRiot recreated other movies before. I'd say it's just a coincidence they used the same scene. Both used completely different techniques. Stealing content ideas happens but in this case I highly doubt it!
@@mercergreyellis895 First... Most likely he didn't even know about that video. The channel has 62 subs, the video not a lot more views. Second... You can't protect an idea in any way. This is nothing you could protect like a trademark or a patent.
Even after watching the whole video, I'm still blown away by how much bigger that ocean looks, just because of that fractal noise hack. Definitely gonna note that for future projects!
Been a viewer since 2011, remember when you guys wanted us to vote for the Webby's or something like that, found it going through super old Facebook posts! So happy to see you guys are still going! How's the other OG members doing?
damn, so this is what compositing looks like... kinda like a photoshop digital imaging. why it didn't occur to me to use a bunch of stock video & photos in AE to create something incredible...
You guys should add 'using stock footage' to your title. I assumed it was a CG remake and would have clicked on it sooner knowing it was a stock footage tutorial, this is fantastic.
I enjoy your videos since years but I dont think I have ever written any comment. But this tutorial... wow! The simple steps you took resulted in such an incredible clip. Especially how good the tower and the water looks blows me away. Very, very well done! :-)
Wow, congratulations guays. I have been following you for many years. And I love your videos, I laugh a lot with you, and above all, I learn. But here... This is amazing! It is absolutely impressive how you have been able to recreate such an impressive scene in such an easy way, starting from basic concepts and above all using ingenuity and imagination (I loved using real images of columns) with a Hollywood level. This type of tutorial blows my mind, because the result is completely impressive and you do it in a very simple way and with programs like After Effects. Please more tutorials like this! Greetings from Spain 🤩😊

As a 3d artist, I'm feeling really endangered by how easily you guys are getting the work done using only stock footages🤣🤣.
I love how far film riot has come, from the good old days of PVC shoulder rigs to this increadibleness

It looks so good guys. Very impressed with it.
Filmmaking is all misdirection.
Jaw drop!
That was really eye opening, especially with how you made the tower and the water around it. Just amazing
Yes that part was really cool to see actually.
i love this idea of recreating movie shots
@@mercergreyellis895 ok? and? a vast majority of the content on youtube is referenced? they also never claimed that it was their original idea. so what are you really on about?
This was f*cking amazing. Keep up the great f*cking work.

Your usage of 'stock' footage' is inspirational.
'All hail the CGI Guru'.
Incredible how my brain always over complicates things. The entire scene (except the ship) is just pictures! I thought for sure that building was just a 3d model. LOVE IT!
One of the best videos to date.
Thanks guys
Honestly I thought this was just gonna be replacing the ship. But I'm very impressed that you recreated the environment too.
DAYYUMMM!! #FILMRIOT ALWAYS EMPOWERING US FILMMAKERS!!! #ThankYOUguys
Keep blowing my mind since like...🤔 2011? Thank you guys 👏
YAY Josh is back! And the funny skits! I love it. Thanks for the tutorial. I love all your videos.
The way yall just kitmashed that thing together was downright inspiring! 💪
I'm honestly impressed of how many things i didn't know about a software i've been using for years. Amazing job, guys.
that gag in start is really funny guys! Awesome video!
Film Riot is the only reason I still have a RUclips app… high quality meaningful content that’s engaging, informative & f’in hilarious!
COME ON FILM RIOT! Hit 2 Mil Already!!! Rooting for all of you! Much love
Thank you Ryan! The cussing and the technique is impeccable and I love seeing all of the progress and how easy you make it look. You and your brother makes this accessible for us slightly irregular folks to explore what's possible within SFX. Thank You
The most impressive thing about this video IMO is that you found a photo with textures that some what matched the look of their building.
Omg Assemble might be exactly what I've been desperately needing

Your attention to detail is perfect. Nailed it!
This is some top hollywood stuff
Great Job!!
Your recreated shots are very impressive. You must be proud.
DUDDEE....DUUDEEE.... *THE TOWER TECHNIQUE* ....man....just *how good it LOOKS* 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Our VFX artist Ryan Thompson did this one. He's incredible.

Your comedy and learning is just a wonderful integration.
F**K these guys are crazy f**king creative with their source pics...🤯
Loved the cursing - in my head I instantly went yes this Is what we love to see haha

That was awesome! A great example of how you can create something epic with the tools you have available to you.

This really makes me appreciate the effort of the VFX Artists and the clever techniques they use
So many useful techniques in this tutuorial!
The way you simplified everything and explained it all was fantastic! great stuff
Crazy thing is Ryan is just as talented at writing and playing music as he is at working on film and VFX.
That was incredible and your approach was actually a lot simpler than I was expecting!
At first I thought you would just beef up the original footage with color correction and flair. But actually doing it from scratch?! Wow. Bravo.
That's f*ckin Obi-Wan Kenobi!
Really well done 💪

LOVED this one. Such a great result from such simple assets. It shows how much you can do if you just...work.
...I haven't watched Obi-Wan yet. THIS is why I'm about to go watch it! Well done as always!!
Sorry for what you are about to witness
this is insane, insane the little tiny things you added in from random photos
That’s incredibly creative, just using stock assets. It’s a real credit to what you can achieve when starting with nothing.
Amazing. So creative, i love it!!

Looks f*cking great!

Tutorials are getting better. Im in love with these :)
Really helpful video covering a lot of troubling stuff, great understanding of the softwares!
Great ep!! And the banter!!! Like old film riot days
Honestly, I think yours is better. I mean, look at the textures, people.

Loved that you essentially used AfterEffects like it was Photoshop to build the Tower in the shot.
Make indoor jungle types video please

This comes into my motivation playlist
Great tutorial. 👍
