- Probably better than this, moral of the story, practical over CGI every day! :)
I appreciate all of your feedback and am very excited to spend more time on these effects for you all in the future. Please like and subscribe if you enjoyed. anyone else notice Doc's drip?
Some of my favorite movies were filmed in the 80’s and I think a large part of that has to do with the fact they tell great stories and are filled with charm. Especially compared to some of these blockbuster hits backed by huge conglomerations that we see today. The technological boundaries that filmmakers faced back then aren't even around anymore which is why I don't know if we’ll ever be able to truly replicate this again. Sad
With that being said, some of the visual effects from the 80’s are starting to age a little bit, which begs the question, what would some of these scenes/shots look like today?
In this video, we will be using modern visual effects techniques to bring my favorite movie, Back To the Future, back to the -
My big goal right now is get myself prepared enough to direct my first short film next year, so consider following to see that journey unfold!

THANK YOU for watching! I did not expect this one to reach as many folks as it did, so really stoked about that. I love the feedback and I can’t wait to bring you guys more. 😊
By the way will you actually make an animation with this 20/22 stuff you made like actually make the scene come back to the Future
great video. next time make sure audio levels are leveled cause some clips are quierter than others 👍
len flare ruins the shot tho... =)
PLEASE tell me you'll do more effects from BTTF! I was sad it was just one effect, it was very neat looking, but I would really love to see more! I subscribed. ❤️
I have just liked your video BRO
I applaud your efforts, but this movie's practical effects in my humble opinion still hold up today, way better than effects from other movies of the era. I think the one shot you actually improved on though was the fixing of the fire trails scene when doc and marty both look back at the camera, they did look pasted in originally and you remedied that.
Agreed! I never noticed it before, but in the original cut, the scene where they are standing in the fire looks really fake...especially Marty's legs.
I really appreciate this feedback! I also agree they did a timeless job with this film visually. Thank you for watching Rebecca!
Agree! I was very annoyed in CGI improved version about image being cropped. Like we see almost nothing else except a car when it is accelerating.
Yeah, but that annoying shaky cam he added does absolutely nothing.
100% agree. Fire shot looks great. I’ll take the original for everything else.
The constant camera shake is what I disagree with here (or perhaps I haven't seen enough 2022 movies). Besides that I think it's a quite good representation of a 2022 version.
But when we talk about what of the scene really needed some extra time, it's only the one with them standing on fire. The rest is technically perfect, as it is :)
Yeah. That shaky cam 🤮
The camera shake makes this look like a bootleg filmed by someone in the audience...! The new fire trails are a big update compared to the original effect, that scene looks great!
I was going to reply that, its very distracting and you literally loose track on where to watch and see the real expression of the character. also, way to much bloom
the combination of camera shake and frankly too overexposed lighting and reduced contrast does make it look like a camrip more than anything
That and the lens flare, ugh reminds me of jj Abrams abuse of the effect
There's a saying that "Practical effects look fake but feel real, and CGI looks real but feels fake" and I usually agree. I don't think the car should continue after the explosion, as the DeLorean stopping short is what gives the moment more drama (at least, to me). But, like most of the other comments, I believe you corrected the biggest issue and made it better: The last shot of them standing in the flames was a great improvement!
Fixing the shitty feet in the flames comping was the only thing that needed "fixing" in my book. The rest of the shots look way better in the original.
I think 95% of the film would be CGI and Motion Capture since Robert Zemickis is obsessed with the stuff nowadays.
yeah, he's likes state of the art visual effects and so he would use the newest that 2022 has to offer like he has done with all his movies using the best available at the time he made them
I’ve been trying to come up with anything that would make _Who Framed Roger Rabbit?_ better with a modern production, and I’m really at a loss. It just always has looked how it _should_ look. The only thing I can think of is that it would make the production itself easier (while all still looking the same), getting the Toons into the real world and the real into the toon world, without as much need for the animatronics that interacted with real world objects for the Toons. But… that’s all, folks!
I've seen this movie so many times, and I still love it. No amount of rendition will ever make it better for me. The way I see it, sometimes just leave well enough alone.
Yeah, WTF does "dated" mean as a criticism - EVERY film is dated, EVERY book is dated - they all reflect the tech, the standards, the culture, and trends of the times they were made and written. To say "I can do it better now" is to ignore the culture in which such a film arose. Too much navel-gazing about the effects, and not enough cultural empathy for the characters.
@@richarnold5323 ye
We don't need remake of Back to the Future. We have this.
Don't you mean, "Remakes? Where we're going we don't need remakes!"
@@TheKeenTribe Your making me more confused.
What we need is a theater re-release. Just for the “big screen experience”
it's more of a remaster
Great video. You really demonstrate why we still love the movies from years ago and totally forget the modern over CGI efforts from today. Too much CGI, too much shake, too much exposure, too much lens flare. In days gone by, they had to really think about how a shot was laid down and it shows.
It's a bit like music : if you put too much stuff at the same sound level, it's very annoying and meh. What is great are the small quick bits that you add here and there that are almost unconscious but that the mind notices and craves. The idea is good there, but he 's young and cocky : he should now retry by toning everything down. Zooms in and out very small, effects around the car climbing up slowly to become an orgasmic Flash and so on. About Flares, did he not learn the star trek director's lesson ?
These films hold a very special place in my heart. Just under my family, naturally. You did and excellent job modernizing these shots!
Hopefully we can all agree Back To The Future is one of the greatest movies of all time
My humble opinion. First to shots, not necessary. Third shot, THANK YOU for fixing that!! Had me scratching my head for years.
Over all, thank you for taking the effort to do so and I respect your passion for it!!!
Keep it up!!☝️😌
Powerwalkin, that’s a great song. BTTF is my favorite movie too, I love history and science because of it! Great video man!
I've always been distracted by that reverse shot where the fire go's through Doc and Marty's legs but you fixed it man! Awesome job.
Good job I honestly think the only thing that needed to be added was the scene you retouched of them looking back. that was done very very well! Minus the crazy zooms/camera shake!
This was a fantastic and really fun video! The quality of EVERYTHING is top notch!! Definitely need more subs and attention, subscribing!
That really means a lot Billy! I love your animation style!
You are seriously, SERIOUSLY underrated. Excellent video!
It came out so good. I hardly noticed the extra work you added to the scene.
Aw thanks Freddy!!! I really appreciate the kind words. :) Remorse came out great!
Honestly this was a nice well put together video, nice see ya when youre at 100K in about a year or so
Adding the ghost car going through them is a great touch
I really liked the idea of the Delorean travelling through Doc & Marty as if it was in a different (out of phase) state, before completely disappearing into time.
This channel is going places, awesome video!
What you made is so sick! No cap....
Make this man famous!!
Im glad i just fond this! I was asking myself this same question two days ago. Thanks!!
I love Back to the Future. It's really cool what you did, nice job
Wow.. that's great. This is one of my all time favourite too.
LOVED IT! Great work 👏
this is really well done and its my favorite movie as well :) good shit
Very nice! I loved how you fixed Doc and Marty's legs above fire trails.
Back to the Future has been my #1 favorite movie since the day it came out! I absolutely LOVE the extra special effects! You did an awesome job!
Can I please have your permission to use the clip here to add to my channel as a short? I'll give you the credit and acknowledge your channel.
Go right ahead friend :) I’m glad you enjoyed!
The last shot was so effective! Keep it up, sir!
That came out really good nice work
great effort specially on the fire trail, BTTF is my favorite movie of all time. The Delorean though was I think over done with particles and effects to the point that you can not see and appreciate the car / time machine.
Amazing channel!! Just subscribed
That looks So Cool
the hologram is a nice touch. like its being phased out of time instead of instantly teleported.
Oh man I have no idea why but I'm glad the algorithm said I should watch this video! This was awesome! Great job on 2022ing it up! You did a great job! The shot of the DeLorean @4:18 was awesome in the original but HOT DAMN you made it look freakin amazing! Yea I agree that the reverse explosion scene was already great so I'm glad you did not mess with that but WOW thanks for this!
I think that because of acting on the blue screen, Marty turns around before Doc. You could make them rotate at the same time. If necessary, you should speed up the rotation of one of them or slow down the other until it looks natural.
The blue screen on the fire shot is really the only one that needs fixing. the other shots hold up and honestly loom way cooler
As both a SFX and VFX engineer I am more partial towards the practical effects. The high contrast that we paint props with to let them even register under the bright lights, those props that really do something magical in shot help the actors to give a real reaction. Creating motion control or camera control rigs is just fucking cool to do.
And there’s just no replacement for massive set pieces.
And these days I do more and more indie movies and it’s my actually combined knowledge of SFX make up effects, (electronic) prop making and VFX that combines the best out of both worlds. And we ended up winning Best FX and Best Film for a horror twice. So I guess we are doing something right.
DUDE! Whoah! Nice!!
"Great Scott"
"This Is Heavy"
You improved them standing in the fire trails 100% but to be honest, car scene still looks much better in practical.
But great effort nontheless.
Damn, this is incredible! (and heavy!) Definite subscribe. Hope you hit the 1K subs soon. Given the editing skills, this is a channel which needs to be monetised! Will check out more of the videos soon.
This look amazing, will be more amazing it you did that for the Time Train in BTTF 3
this is geniunly fantastic!
I have to admit it
that is so cool.....!
😀✨✨❤️
Yep, this "standing on the fire"-scene is and was for me always the moment where it puts me out of the immersion. Everything else is pretty perfect in the old movies and shouldn't be touched, imho!
wow ive got a long way to go, to do stuff like you. well done
I’m not an effects guy, but I want to try to give some constructive criticism.
The big problem with rotoscoped bright light effects was they didn’t illuminate or reflect in the models. I saw a video where a group re-did the original Star Wars trench run, and the difference was huge when blaster bolts lit both the trench and the spacecraft (I think a little overdone, that seems a hard thing to tone down based on how common that is).
The original shot here put a lot of stuff in front so the lack of illumination wasn’t very visible. Some lack of reflections were. The problem with this remake is there’s too much flashy stuff in the way now, making the DeLorean itself vague, and any improvements to the realism were obscured and irrelevant.
bro this video was so well made i started clapping without my hands
looks epic... well done
I gotta agree with the fire trails under Doc and Marti's feet. That one always took me out of it. NoahG VFX put me back into it.
Wow, big shoutout to the practical fx team to do in the 82 what 30 years of tech can do now.
Ngl idk what y’all are talking about but the remade version he made genuinely make it feel more realistic to me😂look back at the old one just feels comedically weird now Ngl💀it adds onto what they were trying to make but couldn’t due to it’s time,but doesn’t take anything away from the scene,just makes it look more epic
Really well done!
great effort. you deserve more subs.
I got no complaints this looks great 👍
That did look pretty good. And I saw the movie when it came out and I've seen it hundreds of times since.
omg so underrated!!
The *camera shake* makes it evenmore perfect 💀
Thank you! Great work on fixing that. The rest is fine in the original form, but the look of them standing on the fire trails always bugged me. I mean, aside from thinking to myself, “Who the hell just stands in fire like that, even if you did see a car and a dog disappear in a reverse explosion? It’s fire! It burns stuff! Move!” 😄
Glad to see someone understands!
Now this is pretty good but I have a few problems with it. For the first scene the car feels slow and doesn’t feel like it’s moving that fast. The second scene is good but I don’t like the “car” still going even after 88mph, mostly due to the model being bigger for some reason. And the third scene is great maybe a little too much Lens flare, but other than that it’s good
On the other hand, the DeLorean's return to 1955 and landing behind the billboard, is sheer perfection and shalt not be toucht :D
You totally made your point! You showed that technology and cgi won’t ever be able to replace all the subtleties and imperfections that we, as human beings, will inevitably put into everything we do.. the perfection of being imperfect
And ironically, you have left the perfect comment 👌☺️thank you so much for enjoying!
Will all due respect the original still looks way better. You Lucas'd it lol
Love it man! Great work. I think it would be rad if you spend more time on the split screen side by side comparison, before & after. Instead of just dropping it quickly at the end. I feel like its a disservice to all the awesome work you put into recreating it!
Imagine if they remaster the trilogy,but just the effects
It would be epic
I subscribed because of this video 👍
"This is Heavy!"
Very good concept do more old films updated please thank you
This is Beautiful I still think the original Special effects hold up but that scene you fix with them standing on the fire looks amazing and the Like purple glow before the DeLorean hits them looks nice Can you make an updated version of Marty fading away
Great job
U earned a subscriber there
Love this video!!!
I remember my grandfather telling me that he worked on the films!
Woah?!?! Do you remember what his role was? That’s incredible! Thank you! :)
@@noahgvfx He was actually a part of the transportation crew!
nice nice work, a bit heavy on the micheal bay lens flares and the overall blur/glow effect during the jump was causing a bit too much washout over the surrounding scene ( i would create a mask around that area u want to have this blur and soften it to limit the effect on the far edges of the scene, i think with a few tweaks it could be really good! I appreciate it.
EPIC REMASTERED BTTF👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Nice 👍 One of my favourite movies, but even as a kid when it came out, that scene with Doc and Marty standing in the fire bugged me 😬 Everything else was perfect 👌
I congratulate you for the effort. There is original continuity error. The wind in Doc's and Marty's hair when they turn their heads changes. Doc's hands also change position. It happens too fast to be possible. When going from a shaky camera to a fixed one, you can see the different times of production. Something similar happens in Star Wars SC 38 Reimagined with the insertion of new images. The tonality of the new scene is seen with pastel blue colors and the old one is very sharp and warm. The line of fire is very exaggerated before and after so it would be more realistic if it didn't burn the pants. Movies today go through a review team like the commentators on this video before going on the air, the only limit is production time. Maybe you can continue this work.
Cool!!!!!
When they turn Marty's camera is next to the remote control of the car, Doc tilts his back but when they zoom in this changes. Before the approach
there is smoke that disappears and the sky looks black but in 2022 there are lens flares that are confused with smoke. the transition to the black sky background does not look natural.
Ok, but now
the 1ˢᵗ movie goes back to 1992,
the 2ⁿᵈ goes forward to 2052, and
the 3ʳᵈ goes back to 1922 :P
in this case, the practical scenes of 1984 are much better than those of 2022. Ironies of life
Hey, I had a notion while coming home from work - How about the Train Race sequence from Superman The Movie? Take care of the sped up motion error, stuff like that.
I am a purist. I recall the original Star Wars releases and don’t like the countless upgrades. Back to the Future is *MY* all time favourite trilogy and at the start of the video I was nervous.
I know the effects are clunky and dated but that’s part of its charm. However, hats off to you, these little tweaks are superb. Marty and Doc, in the flames 🔥, always irritates me. Even when I was a child I couldn’t get over that effect. This little edit makes a huge difference.
I have to agree. They wouldn’t build a Delorean now either. It would be completely CGI. Bless Gale and Zemeckis for not allowing a reboot or rehash.
I’d happily see any other little edits to make this trilogy even better. Just don’t jump the shark…. It should always look fake 😂
I couldn’t agree more! Thank you so much! Really stoked you enjoyed :)
Hey dude, love what you did with this
Looks amazing! Is it okay if you can do ghostbusters next? I know that they’ve practically done it in afterlife, but the proton stream and some of the ghosts like slimed look way too outdated. Understandable if it takes a while to do if you can, thanks and have a great day!
Okay, the hologram Deloreon going through them was kinda sick. Great work!
(By the way, BTTF content always gets high view counts, so good choice!)
There was this one scene in the second part where they return to 1985 and this is when they drop off lorraine on the hammock I believe. But anwyays, right when they travel back, the car is in hover mode and it descends, and there's a lamp post in the way, and you can see the transition between cgi car and real car. I think itd be great if u can somehow fix it. i just wanna see what it looks like
3:03 I never noticed that what looks like some kind of time portal seems to briefly open up in front of the Delorean
It pains me to break this to you, but Robert Zemeckis was heavily opposed to the use of electricity for the time machine, insisting the time travel sequence differentiates itself stylistically from the overused electricity effects of the 80s.
The modern compositing when they're standing on the fire however makes the world of difference without ruining the effect: something a good remake would truly benefit from.
the best movie in the history of cinema... Greetings From Poland
I can’t argue with you there! I hear Poland is Really cool! Welcome Pejt!
@@noahgvfx Poland is great, my beautiful country ;)... which also has many fans of Back to the Future... I recommend the Polish RUclips Channel BTTF Polska, probably the only channel in Poland almost entirely devoted to the BTTF trilogy
@@pejtmakflaj239 nice! just subscribed to them! Thank you for the recommendation friend!
The standing on fire came out good, but the shakey cam and those balloons in front of the delorean were kinda wonky.
The biggest difference between 80s movies and modern movies is the writing. It’s no longer about giving people what they want/are entertained by. Now it’s about telling people what they should see/learn from and if they enjoy it… we’ll that’s a plus.
Great job , I would buy it . I think they should hire you to remake the scenes up to date . Thank you for sharing
WOW! now THAT would be cool! Thank you so much for enjoying JT :)
I love it. I think the ghost car was a little bigger than the Delorean though
Did you build a time machine… out of a DeLorean?
0:09
Ah yes! Farris Buller!
IMO the camera shake is a bit much but the comping work is great! Excellent vid!
This was all good, except the weird car hologram thing. It kinda just looked unfinished and not really sensical, but the rest was solid
Thanks Jay :) I agree
Good video and great effects, but Im so glad this movie was made back than. Its just looks so much more natural and therefore more believable. Movies using too much CG nowdays, they look wierd.
