I Prove Hollywood Effects Aren't BAD, They're RUSHED (www.youtube.com)

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. 😄

Who blames the VFX people? Obviously the director etc. has the last word. If those people let is pass it is their responsibility. Regardless of that the VFX people did. Same with actors and how they behave on set. If they enable it they are (part of) the issue.

I'd say many would criticise the VFX directly. Maybe not the VFX artists, as they're mostly invisible. But I don't feel like the directors and producers naturally come to people's minds as being responsible.
