To create a scientifically accurate black hole, Interstellar's VFX team wrote a rendering of software based on the equations of an actual astrophysicist. Some of the individual frames took up to 100 hours to render. "Chris really wanted us to sell the idea that the black hole is spherical," said Paul Franklin, the film's visual effects supervisor. The film won an Academy Award for Best Visual Effects.
The Irishman
Martin Scorcese's The Irishman wasn't the first movie to age actors in reverse using CGI, but it was easily the most successful. The $140-million Netflix production experimented with a combination of groundbreaking AI software, motion-capture technology, and an experimental three-camera rigging system. These groundbreaking advancements in technology have paved the way for a new type of filmmaking.
