I spent most of my time on the movie working on the Stark Expo, but I did make a teensy, tiny contribution to the above sequence: I animated the eye lights for War Machine and Iron Man after their helmets come down. 😁

You should seriously do a podcast about VFX and analyzing techniques in movies and TV, talking to other VFX artists, and even talking about your own work! And maybe you could even watch movies and episodes and do running commentaries!
This is an interesting idea.
God I miss the clunks and the weight sound of the “non nano” helmets
I remember when seeing the bts on the blu ray, someone from ILM said that this shot was done entirely CG, minus the brief shot where you see RDJ and Don Cheadle. I kept scrutinizing to see any cg flaws, but it just kept looking real, and still to this day, looks photo real.
correct
Amazing work, as always. I know it would probably be impossible, but have you ever shared the specific sequences you're proudest to have been involved in?
I’d always heard it said that this sequence was choreographed with input from Genndy Tartakovsky and I’ve always wondered how that would work; could you share what level of guidance you would have by the time it gets to the Effects Dept? Are there outlines or storyboards?
That is unbelievable that Marvel’s VFX quality dropped so much lately. This scene from 2010 looks so much better than anything for last three years
Still one of the coolest sequences of the MCU. The tangibility of the suits in Iron Man 1-2, Avengers 1 was just something to behold . Love this work!!
![In The Godfather Part II, early in Vito Corleone’s flashback storyline, Don Fanucci suddenly appears with a scar across his neck - a scar that wasn’t there in his earlier scenes. The film never explains how he got it, but a deleted scene reveals what happened, and it plays out almost exactly as Mario Puzo described it in the novel. “One day Fanucci was set upon by three young men who cut his throat from ear to ear, not deeply enough to kill him, but enough to frighten him and make him bleed a great deal. Vito saw Fanucci fleeing from his punishers, the circular slash flowing red. What he never forgot was Fanucci holding the cream-colored fedora under his chin to catch the dripping blood as he ran. As if he did not want his suit soiled or did not want to leave a shameful trail of carmine.” Coppola wanted the moment to match Mario Puzo’s description as closely as possible. The blood-spurting effect from Fanucci’s neck was created with a fake piece of skin made from foam latex, rigged with two canisters hidden under actor Gastone Moschin’s arm: one filled with compressed air, the other with fake blood. A trigger was placed in Moschin’s palm, and when he pressed it, the compressed air forced blood up through tiny tubes beneath the fake skin, making it look as if Fanucci’s throat had been slashed open. It was a great effect; however, the problem with the scene is that Coppola chose to shoot the attack in a very brief wide shot, from Vito’s point of view. As a result, the violence had less impact than what audiences had come to expect after the first film. Special effects supervisor A.D. Flowers explains… “Yeah, well that was a scene where actually it didn't photograph as well as the story [required]. And this is one of the things which ruins effects, that often the camera goes away so fast from where it happens that you don't realize what is happening. An effects scene can't stay on too long, but it's got to stay on long enough to register. Like there, a guy's getting his throat slit, and he was supposed to put his hat underneath it to catch the blood dripping, and the scene was cut real short, and I don't think the audience really got that much out of it, and I think that was the main reason they cut it out.” (1/2)](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2055574850518069672/amplify_video_thumb/2055571462518620160/img/Mo9Lrxi-rwakeQo1.jpg)
