Customer Reviews
Great "inside" talk
These guys are old pros in the business, and it is a lot of fun to hear them sit around and talk about vfx shots. This is the sort of talk you hear when you actually work at a major studio--what was good here, what didn't work there--really "inside pool" discussions. I especially like that they love digital matte painters. As one myself, it is nice to here these guys giving "props' to the field. Anyone interested in the business should read Ron's great book, "The Art and Science of Digital Compositing", the seminal book in the field.
One of the best
The VFX show is a rare podcast in that I listen to virtually every episode. Crackerjack!
Well done!
Very informative, intelligent, and entertaining conversation on visual effects. As an aspiring effects artist and designer myself I appreciate hearing from industry veterans who are willing to share their insight. Well voiced and well produced, keep it up!
