The COMPLEX VFX Production of The Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes

Last night I watched this AWESOME video breaking down the evolution of the VFX process used when making The Planet of the Apes reboot franchise and how they approached the VFX for the new Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes. It's honestly not my favorite franchise. I think the movies are fun, some I enjoy more than others, but I'm not a super-fan. However, the VFX is incredible and the talent of these artists and crew members is undeniable.

But I want to know all of your thoughts too! How do you feel about the series and the VFX that they've used over the years?

Hi Ashley, smart movies

Maurice Vaughan

I haven't seen the "Apes" reboot series yet, Ashley Renee Smith, but I've been looking forward to it. I saved this video to watch after I see the first three movies.

Thanks Ashley Renee Smith! It IS, certainly an important subject, as they were able to capture and improve on facial expressions and emotions in their characters, which is basically the most significant essence in captivating a deep sense of connection from an audience. Why and where this is heading? Best description! Actual human characters! How realistic and again "captivating", can this be achieved and how soon?

Kerry Kennard

I’m like Maurice Vaughan - have not seen the reboot series yet. I think I’ll wait to watch this video - unless it may help watching the films more enjoyable.

Daniel Husbands

That is a fantastic glimpse into the complex world of filmmaking, thanks Ashley Renee Smith

Maurice Vaughan

I'll probably do a marathon once "Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes" is on streaming, Ashley Renee Smith.

Sam Sokolow

This is an awesome share, Ashley Renee Smith! 140 MoCap cameras alone? Truly cool to see how they achieve this film whether you're a big fan of the franchise or not. The artistry and technical prowess and performances are remarkable!

Ashley Renee Smith

Right, Sam Sokolow?!? It's crazy!

Kerry Kennard

I might have seen 1st movie.

I watched up to the 30-40 mins part in CGI.

With all the video editing out there, I think it would be hard to tell if it’s CGI or real filmed areas.

- since they’ll probably be some within the

Created CGI.
