MPC Prometheus VFX breakdown! - YouTube


The first scene is where Prometheus came to planet LV - 223.


First, arrange stars (the sun).


Next, arrange the stars to overlap there.


I entered the stage of making LV-223. First of all, the surface of the star.


I will add cloud effects here.


Prometheus issue is placed where it looks like.


Since it is moving, add propulsion effect etc. That's it.


I moved to the next scene. I can not tell what exactly this alone is ... ...


A mountain was placed on the right side.


A big mountain ranges in the space on the left.


Placing clouds in the meantime and waking the track, the completion of the scene where Prometheus descends to the planet.


Now it's easy to understand, starting with image sketch by director Ridley Scott.


What made it concept art.


When actually making it, first there is a sky picture ......


I will lay a mountain there.


And arrange Prometheus. Of course, in the meantimeWeatheringThe processing of the atmosphere and the expression of the atmosphere are done, too.


The place where the exploration vehicle runs from the landing Prometheus issue.


Actually there is no Prometheus, and in fact it does not have mountains. The location was a wide wilderness.


Everest has mountains that do not reach the feet, I found something that seemed to be an artificial thing in it and headed for exploration ... ...


During shooting, the vehicle is only running in the wilderness.


A scene where a magnetic storm attacked.


The image sketch of Director Ridley Scott is like this, and it shows the appearance of lightning striking around here.


Arrange CG's Prometheus in the wilderness, add a magnetic storm effect there ... ...


Just synthesized a separate vehicle in a position to escape from the storm.


Scene where Phi Furud and Milburn met mysterious creatures during the exploration.


Kisha!


This creepy creature is made of CG like this way.


A scene of a pinch trying to get inside the body of Milburn.


Living creatures have been synthesized later, so Leif Sport, who serves as Milburn, opens a big mouth and is a wowa! And acting.


Should creatures be stuck on inside the Met with such feeling? The image


In accordance with that, we will apply CG.


This is the scene where a huge spaceship shattered in the last stage. There are two human beings running small in the foreground (white grains are meters of space suit), there are spaceships that have fallen to the left rear.


Shooting scenery of this scene. Three buggies are running behind the two. It is an image that you are being chased.


The buggy has been erased and it has been transformed into a background matching LV - 223.


A spaceship appeared there.


Since the spacecraft is rolling, it synthesizes dust.


It is dangerous to be chased by a spaceship if you match the color etc! Completion of the scene called.


What is visible on the right is the edge of a huge spaceship and the hero Elizabeth standing on that a little left.


This scene, Naomi · La Paz of Elizabeth's role is standing in the wilderness ... ...


Combine spacecraft there.


Add the details ...



That is why it was completed.
