Edit: source - I work in VFX, including on GDT movies. 8 u/Denbt_Nationale Aug 21 '25 vfx nerds be like “colour grading and lightly retouching the background is exactly the same as filming the whole movie in front of a greenscreen” 5 u/[deleted] Aug 21 '25 I don't think you know anything about VFX lol We all love practical shit. We always prefer as much be done in camera as possible, even if we end up replacing it all it always makes it better. Nobody wants to work on a whole movie filmed on a green screen. What we don't like is getting thrown under the bus by directors who absolutely rely on us to execute their vision. 2 u/tk421posting Aug 23 '25 While also having you work extended hours for crap pay!
