Only two shots of ‘Avatar 2’ do not have any special effects

James Cameron has done it again, the king of fundraising seems to be fighting only against himself (with Marvel’s permission) and, as the 2023 Oscars approach, his technical team has relaxed and revealed that only two shots of ‘Avatar: The Sense of Water’ do not have any special effects.

“There’s one of Spider’s eyeball [Jack Champion] and another from the bottom of the ocean and just some ripples on the bottom of the water“, they explain in an interview published in Meter visual effects artists and supervisors Joe Letteri, Daniel Barrett and Eric Saindon. “There’s a lot of live action, a lot of CG characters, but every other scene touched on VFX shots.”

Although the film contains many shots with live action elements, the vast majority of them are enhanced or supplemented with visual effects in post-production, which has allowed only these two shots to be saved from subsequent work in its 192 minutes of footage, something that is not necessarily bad (nor good)..

The water, without a doubt, has been the cause of all this in the first sequel, but be careful, in ‘Avatar 3’ they intend not to stop there and a new Na’vi clan based on fire and based on a volcano will make the team responsible for the effects does not rest on its laurels. The so-called Town of Ash will put the CGI of the saga to the test again.

“There was a fear that the sequel would plunge into eco-kitchen, and despite a couple of moments of very ‘Abyss’ spirituality and very borderline cheesy, ‘Avatar 2′ is fury, blood, blind revenge and a western closer to ‘Soldier Blue’‘ than to ‘Dances with Wolves’“, pointed out Fausto Fernández in his review of ‘Avatar: The sense of water’. “‘Avatar: The Sense of Water’ is not just an abracadabrant cinema-spectacle. It is the return of a great filmmaker who always insisted on building cathedrals towards perfection.”

While many wonder what the release date of ‘Avatar 2’ on Disney+ is, the film has shown that the public wanted to return to Pandora, even though we continue to think that its universe continues to be impervious to the collective imagination and we review the 5 reasons why ‘Avatar 2’ should not win the Oscar. If James Cameron is capable of making history (again) using Papyrus As the main source to present to the world his universe of wallpapers created by an artificial intelligence, we are going to have to give him the merits once and for all, even if we have to do journalism to achieve it.
