The Corridor Crew brilliantly explain how VFX isn’t bad, it’s rushed. Yeah I know it’s the title of the video but it’s true. The upper management of the studios seemingly have no idea what they’re asking for. There’s also some eyebrow raising examples of what happens in the industry as well.

To prove the point, Jordan has to create the visual effects shot needed in 5 minutes, then 5 hours and finally 5 days. Despite having the extra time in each case, it’s still stressful for the artist.

Oh just watch the video, it’s better than me trying to push the same point. 😄

      I think there is a difference. Being bad(generally) men’s, that the artists failed to do what was expected and didnt have the required skills. The effects being bad because of it being rushed means, that even when the artists had the needed skis they were forced to make it bad to save time. The difference here is who to blame. In the first scenario it was the artists fault in the second the managers.

    I was surprised at how well the 5 hour version turned out. Definitely not perfect, but very serviceable honestly.

      As an absolute layman, I was pretty satisfied with the 5 min version. Not saying it was great at all. It was just astonishing how quickly a professional could essentially mock up an idea.
