The SeaDragon features 19 complete CG sets, 440 assets and an impressive 321,000,000 polygons. Watch the #VFX breakdown of this epic Wing-In-Ground-Effect (WIGE) ship. #WētāFX #AvatarTheWayOfWater #BTS
Totally jaw dropping, I got goosebumps when watching this thing in motion at the movies, it was truly next level stuff. The designs really tie it all together; so well considered from the macro to the micro details.
Amazing work, I can tell you as a huge Avatar and Sci Fi fan as well as a Robot/Mech model builder enthusiast, it was so cool to see these models up close and take a look at the turntable reviews and beautiful topology in Maya. The entire models team and hard surface team is world class superstars at Wētā FX.
WTF, I could have done it for 10 bugs and with 0.0 Polygons(!) using AI!
Absolutely amazing
I miss real pyrotechnics. CG explosions and fire still look so ... CG :/
so imporessive
It’s a comforting feeling knowing that all assets have been produced in tandem and match stylistically your presentation. Producing / orchestrating is easier that way, otherwise you have to massage your assets to match your style.
The level of detail and artistry in creating the SeaDragon is awe-inspiring. It’s incredible to see how passion and technology come together to bring such intricate visions to life. Truly a masterclass in VFX.
Impressive work
