Zodiac CGI
This behind the scenes compilation by Digital Domain (the company that created the effects) reveals just how much CGI was used in Fight Club director David Fincher’s near-perfect Zodiac. Like plastic surgery, the best CG work should never be noticed. This movie is a modern classic. An owner, not a rental… Are you listening, Criterion? (via wells)
Check out David Fincher’s commercial work.
UPDATE: Zodiac, The Director’s Cut not as director’s cuty as we would like; It’s only five minutes longer than the theatrical release.
Totally seamless and realistic. I’ll be disappointed if it doesn’t win a technical award at the big show.
he did NIN’s song Only! interesting concept with the imprint toy. a little brightly lit for such a dark song.
that clip is just a tiny bit though, there’s the scene that is a time lapse of the transamerica building being built, which is awesome. and also the embarcadero freeway, which was torn down after the ‘89 earthquake.
Tom Bergeron was great on Evening Magazine
He’s following it up with a sequel: “The Chinese Zodiac.” Who is killing the monkeys and dragons and dogs of San Francisco?!?!

Got the same sense while watching it that you do when watching a champion gymnast perform… that there must have been an inhuman amount of work that went on behind the scenes. Great find.
