The Great Gatsy VFX

Great video showing how much visual FX was used in The Great Gatsby, from Chris Godfrey, the VFX supervisor on the film. He says, "Baz has graciously agreed to let us release this 'before and afters' reel to show our peer group the VFX work completed on his film 'The Great Gatsby'. While this specific reel was the work of Animal Logic (as my primary vendor), in total I worked with 7 vendors including Animal Logic, Rising Sun and Iloura in Australia, ILM in San Francisco and also Prime Focus and Method Vancouver. We also ran an amazing internal SWAT team that completed over 400 shots. Congratulations to all who did such fabulous work on almost 1500 shots."


BOLIDES

Things falling from space are always cool, it especially helps when some kind person has taken a hell of a lot of data and made a great visualisation of it all. 

"BOLIDES is an attempt to visualize and explore the meteorites that have collided with the Earth. The visualization focuses mainly on meteorites that were eye-witnessed when falling and hitting the ground." There's loads more info on the site. Give it a read, it's pretty cool. 

If you like it, check out every recorded meteorite strike on earth. Same sort of thing but different.
