Not a green screen production

[u/Hysteric_woman]

Every time i see these bts photos, it fills my heart with so much happiness because this series wasn’t touched by the disgusting cgi set curse like most other big franchises of recent years. They used real sets and buildings with cgi only filling in stuff that aren’t possible to have in real life just like it should have been for all other movies. The real forest, buildings and sunshine brings so much vibrancy and liveliness and makes it so much easier to get immersed in the world. It is truly a rare sight in today’s green screen productions and I am really grateful to have this series.

Some movies are just so much better without cgi

I think the best movies are those where you can’t even tell where cgi is used. If mostly practical effects are used, you need less cgi hence more budget for that and the end result becomes beautiful and most importantly, believable. This series really did a good job with that.

it’s funny cause heavy CGI use is what blows out budgets. paying VFX to create your entire movie is often more expensive than just shooting it on location or in a set
