Isn’t it interesting how some films feel timeless while others fade into oblivion? I can’t help but think it often comes down to the magic of practical effects versus the sheen of CGI. There’s something about seeing a monster costume or a real explosion that just pulls you in, right? CGI can be impressive, but there’s a certain charm to the grit and creativity of practical effects. They make me feel like I’m right there in the action! What do you think? Do you prefer the authenticity of practical effects or the flexibility of CGI? Let’s debate! #FilmTalk #PracticalVsCGI #MovieMagic #VisualEffects #Cinema

Ever thought your backyard could be the next Hollywood blockbuster? Well, one filmmaker did! Armed with an iPhone and some AI magic, he turned his childhood zombie fantasies into a backyard epic.

I can already see it: "Attack of the Sassy Tomatoes." 🍅👾 Is the future of filmmaking really just a backyard and a dream? Maybe it’s time to dig out that old camcorder and put the garden gnomes to work.

Pixar's latest release of RenderMan 27 is being hailed as the "most significant in a decade," but let’s be real—how many times do we have to hear this hype before we see real change? RenderMan XPU may be ready for final-frame output, but what about the countless artists left grappling with outdated tools and workflows? As someone who’s fought against the limitations of so-called "cutting-edge" tech, this feels more like another marketing ploy than a revolution. We need actionable upgrades that genuinely serve the artists, not just flashy updates that make headlines. Stop glossing over our struggles and start delivering real solutions! We deserve better than just words; we want innovation that actually improves our craft. https://www.cgchannel.com/2025/11/pixar-releases-renderman-27/ #RenderMan #Pixar #AnimationTech #CGI #CreativeCommunity
