Really looking forward to more BTS footage. I would love to know how much blue screen work is being done, because I think it's essentially *everything* beyond the immediate surroundings. I'm not sure they've done any actual on location work yet, and that's crazy. From what I understand, they're filming everything on an industrial lot in Manhattan Beach, south of LAX.

The Mandalorian: Jon Favreau Using Holodeck-Like Filming Techniques Bryce Dallas Howard posted:"John Favreau, of course, is known for pushing emerging technology forward. What he did with Jungle Book, what he is doing now with The Lion King. I mean this is really extraordinary, sort of what is possible because of these projects. There were so many times when I would be like "It’s okay John we can just do it that way" and he’s like "I just want to see if its possible, we just need to see if its possible," I’m like "okay" and its tested and way more times you find out it is possible and its better. Basically, everything beyond the immediate surroundings are giant LED screens, so you feel like you're on location.

mystes posted:Do you think that matte paintings are giant paintings that are actually hung on the set? That's exactly what they are. Sony Studios has the last big matte-painting workshop in Hollywood, and they literally just have giant canvases hung like scrolls, and they stand on ladders and paint them. When I toured there they had some of the landscapes from Hateful Eight up on display, and some cool trompe l'oeil interiors from classic films. Now, modern cgi also uses the term "matte painting" but that doesn't mean real paintings aren't a thing.

Canvas backdrops predate matte paintings and are different from them.

thrawn527 posted:It's actually even cooler than that. Besides the slow pacing, this might be part of what makes it more immersive. The environment affects what people do in subtle ways, like where they look and how they stand, not to mention what it can do to a person's mood, so I feel like having actors that are more in tune with it would help. To the point that even a really basic local theater backdrop would be better than just a green screen.

Yeah dude, i was responding to what he was actually talking about, not obsessing over a slight mixup in terminology, because I have accomplishments and friends and poo poo and don't need to deathgrip my goonpeen about every little loving thing. He already posted clarifying what he meant. I even quoted that post. You even quoted me quoting that post. If you still can't loving cope might I suggest less cartoon alien babies and more therapy.

Probably, or he's the garrison/military leader while herzog is the faction leader.
