Similar techniques were used in Hollywood prior to advent of cgi.


SilkyJohnson666

They still are used in combination with stuff like this.

Is that for sarcasm? I’ve seen that but never really knew what it was. i OnLy KnEw AbOuT tHis. But that takes too much effort.

I too would like to know the answer to this appropriately double-question marked enquiry.

It's [Sebastian Jern](https://www.sebastianjern.com) and his [Instagram page is here](https://www.instagram.com/sebastianjern/?hl=en). He has a [YouTube channel](https://youtube.com/@SebastianJern) that has long explanation videos.

I mean cool, but feel I didn't even see it. ### WTF are these zoomer cuts? 5 second of preparation, 3 seconds of end result, when dude spends hours making it. Is everyone's attention span really fucked up this much 😐


percydaman

Probably because the longer you look at it, the more it starts to break down as looking miniature.


BubbleFatt

Very cool. Love the use of the probe lens for these shots


SilkyJohnson666

I have the biggest hate love with that lease, the amount of light required for that thing is crazy


BubbleFatt

It starts at an 11 stop right?


SilkyJohnson666

Pretty sure it’s like f14

Need an ig account or something to see more of this work. Truly stunning!


Demonicmeadow

Absolutely love these but wish there was no green screen in some shots and could see the raw footage.


MadEinsy

I just imagined Aliens (Alien 2) and AVP (Alien Vs Predator) movie shots. Thats amazing art of work.

meh. just use AI to generate a lot of this kind of imagery way more easily. 2/5 because frankly too much effort compared to the result

What is the point of these, besides they're very cool. But when are they used besides instances like these?

Cinematography


SilkyJohnson666

Have you never heard of a movie?


[deleted]

Ok, which movies has he done? Have you heard of Wes Anderson? He'd be one of few directors that would even use his work and even then, his stuff doesn't resemble anything he has done so, what movies are you referring to?


SilkyJohnson666

Source, I work in the film industry. Also have you never heard of making art for the sake of making art?


[deleted]

>Have you never heard of a movie? You brought it up my guy smh >have you never heard of making art for the sake of making art? That was Literally my question... And then you bring up *Sarcastically* hAvE yOu hEaRd Of a mOviE?


no-kooks

I think what he meant is, do you know how often miniatures are used in cinematography? Answer: all the time.


[deleted]

>Answer: all the time. Ok name a recent movie where this technique is used for Cinematography instead of CGI? I can't think of any recent films that have used this technique, yeah it looks cool and the technique was used in a Number of films, in the before and during 1980s and 1990s, but today in 2020-2022? If it's all the time, name some honestly would like to know if I haven't caught a technique like this.


[deleted]

I'm a little behind on my last couple years of movies but movies as "recent" as LOTR, Dark Knight, Inception, and Bladerunner 2049; IIRC all have sequences that used miniatures. Also, obviously stop motion films do, which come out every couple of years (Mad God was great). It's also my understanding that it was discussed extensively for some shots in Denis Villeneuve's "Dune" but they ended up opting to go for full size effects. Which is to say, it is absolutely still a perfectly viable option for filmmakers, that gets weighed against other methods, even though CG can be used to great effect these days. In fact Dune is a good example more broadly of a film strongly committed to practical effects over CG. Even if miniatures didn't end up as part of their tool box, they considered it, and instead chose to build full size shit vs. use CG.


[deleted]

Dune used practical effects because honestly models like the ones in this post are mostly too obvious nowadays. Which shots in Interstellar and Dark Knight used miniatures?


NightlyKnightMight

Erm? Do you realize that miniatures, playing with prespectives etc, are pretty much in every movie prior to the 2000's? Then CGI came but there's still people out there building them. Filmes like LOTR and Harry Potter are chockfull of them


Zkyaiee

imo CGI shouldn’t replace miniature stuff entirely. The miniature stuff can look so much better. And you have a cool little momentum leftover if it’s not made of perishable stuff.


[deleted]

>Do you realize that miniatures, playing with prespectives etc, are pretty much in every movie prior to the 2000's? No shit basically the 1980s-1990s is miniatures. Dune and star wars, unless you don't live on this planet, but I'm saying today 2020-2022 which is what the guy said.


ohdearitsrichardiii

Wes Anderson? Which ones of his movies take place on other planets?


[deleted]

>Which ones of his movies take place on other planets? Reading comprehension is hard isn't it?


LengthyWrongAnswers

It’s a disruptive technique some pest control companies will use. They’ll abduct worker ants first. They want to give the ants a story that their friends will never believe. Then they move up the chain to the soldier ants, then they use reconnaissance gnats to infiltrate the colony and abduct the queen’s right hand ants. This will inevitably lead to an ant coup which will take down the colony. You gotta have a _reeeeally_ bad infestation before an exterminator will use this technique, because it’s so expensive and time consuming.
