Benjamin Button has swept the Oscar nominations. And while I may not agree with all of the noms, Button should be a lock for Visual Effects. Check out this new behind-the-scenes video.
Benjamin Button
was a collaboration of Paramount Pictures, Warner Bros., Digital
Domain, Asylum FX, Matte World and Lola FX. When everybody put their
heads together, what we got was the aged face of Brad Pitt on a tiny
body that looked too good to be your standard digital manipulation.
Over at BenjaminButtonFX.com, there's an extensive collection of
videos that show just how they made Brad look so good. It's pretty
amazing how similar the end result is to Brad's brow. Click io9.com for the whole story.
