Video Effects Breakdown

That's wonderful! I'm stunned by how seamlessly it slots in. They make it look so easy, although it must be horrendously time consuming & fiddly.

So much work and so much talent. This is insanely inspiring and impressive. They've got some great artists working there.

Amazing. It's almost impossible for your mind to watch something like that and not accept that it's all real, assuming that they've found some well-preserved period locations. Things like the ships you'd probably guess at being CGI, but not most of the other stuff. Directors must have to be real visionaries these days - the backdrops for 90% of what they are shooting aren't anywhere close to the end results, so the planning and storyboarding must be monumentally detailed and precise.

WOW!

wow, as a big big fan of boardwalk empire i knew there was a bit of cgi involved, scenes like the first one with the large boats are fairly easily to take notice of if you're looking, but i had no idea how much cgi went into little things.

90% of the show is beautifully subtle in it's use of the cgi backdrops and this video was brutally impressive.

the planning for all this seems mind boggling as well.
