    So at 5:30 there’s a mistake in your assessment. There was no stitching of two shots together… When the camera passes through the mirror set actual mirrors were slid up quickly between the two parallel sets… It’s ONE shot

      You're 100% correct. That's my mistake. I should have double checked my sources for that aspect of the shot. Appreciate the comment!

      "Inattentional Blindness" is one of the great unsung heroes of filmmaking. IB is why no one ever thinks it odd that you can see the Hollywood hills from London's Carnaby Street in "The Spy Who Shagged Me." Or that in "Independence Day" Area 51 apparently gets their trashcans from the ART DEPT. As Harrison Ford said to Mark Hamill, "If people are looking at our hair, kid, we're in big trouble."

      People are used to think "That's a mirror" and that's why very few can notice the illusion before being told how it was done. Our minds do a lot of things to try to "enhance" our vision and add details where there isn't on the fly that's why that kind of tricks do work despite not withstanding the "frame by frame" test

    As a professional post-production VFX artist that does this type of object removal on a daily basis, can confirm the VFX approach to remove cameras in mirror shots like this happen a lot more than we think! Still get some nice onset tricky like the camera positioning or double actors/sets to help, but nowadays there's a lot more oh "ehhh let's fix that in post" kinda approach 😄

    Awesome video! I do VFX for a living and you covered it pretty well. I actually worked on Black Swan at Look Effects, and was responsible for a good deal of camera paint-outs. (Aronofsky seems to love the brute force approach like the shot you ended with, but... less planning from the DP and more "just fix it in post")
    Was thrilled to see you picked some black swan shots as examples.

    Really surprised he didn't dig in, on Contact, at least on the end of the VHS release, they had a whole making of, including how they did that shot. The camera actually backed all the way through the cabinet frame, and they used CG to simulate the bevel of the mirror.

    • @83vbond

      My brother used to work in the animation industry. He eventually worked with Rhythm & Hues, one of the most storied animation studios that weren't attached to their own production houses (e.g. unlike Lucasfilm's Industrial Light & Magic or Disney). Rhythm & Hues did effects for many of the X-Men movies, the Narnia movies, Life of Pi, and had won an Oscar for Babe (the mid 90s one with the talking animals). My brother actually worked on Life of Pi. However at the very time its Oscar was announced, the company was filing for bankruptcy. Animation houses are treated like sh*t by Hollywood studios like Warner, who will negotiate every penny of profit out of them and the animators would often be operating at losses just to keep their company going. The usual creative industry dynamic of young talent being forced into working for peanuts to "build their portfolio" also led to a host of talent in India and China doing things dirt cheap (or for free internships), making it a numbers game rather than about quality. Digital tools also made quality easier to achieve. It's an irony that even in animation movies the voiceover actors are credited as the stars of the movie (if they happen to be famous), while those who actually made the visuals would come in 10 minutes into the credits, if they come at all (in many, many movies only a couple of head honchos of the VFX studio are mentioned, not the talent who actually made the visuals). During the R&H bankruptcy episode there was a "Green screen" movement in animation circles where people replaced their social media photos with green screens, since that's all we would have if there were no digital artists. But it remained within those circles rather than become known to the wider public. Anyway, after R&H went bankrupt my brother left the animation industry, went back to school and became a highly paid analytics consultant. He doesn't like it that much, but it pays the bills. He does art on the side for personal satisfaction. Maybe the day would come when animators get more respect and recognition, like stunt actors now do. But anyway. :)

    Fascinating stuff! BTW, there's a scene near the end of "Return to Oz" that had a huge parade of characters, including many that were puppets, going through a palace with mirrors on virtually every surface. I've watched it many times and have always been amazed that I can't see any of the camera, crew, or other gear in the mirrors.

    • @david203
      @david203 3 года назад +47

      Mirrors can also be simulated in film using a green screen. In post production they can show the reversed video (taken at an appropriate angle by a second camera) where the green screen was. The illusion can be perfect.
