I’ve always been fond of VFX and CGI and the main reason I decided to study 3D Computer Animation was to work in visual effects after graduating. VFX and CGI allow filmmakers to create spectacular visuals beyond practical effects’s limitations. From environments to fantastical creatures, VFX enhances the visual spectacle of films providing a more immersive cinematic experience.
I believe that choosing a topic related to either CGI or VFX is going to help me broaden my theoretical knowledge. Also, VFX is not limited to specific genres. It’s employed in a wide range of films, from sci-fi and fantasy to historical dramas and animated features. Moreover, my favorite genre has always been sci-fi and one of the skills I’ve been trying to improve is hard surface modeling and design. Sci-fi films often feature advanced spacecraft, futuristic vehicles, and cutting-edge technology; are VFX and CGI needed to impact sci-fi films’s narrative?
