As we head towards the Academy Awards and – hopefully – an Oscar coming the way of ILM (4 of the 5 nominated films are from ILM with Godzilla: Minus One being ther fifth), the one film which would appear to lead the pack is The Creator. With a number of incredible advancements and a director who is very aware of the industry behind the magic, Lucasfilm caught up with Gareth Edwards to look at the film and its non-traditional methods and also with ILM Visual Effects Supervisor Jay Cooper.
Gareth also sat down with Collider to discuss the film in their latest FYC screening series with Landmark Theatres.
Collider had the opportunity to spend an evening with Gareth Edwards to learn how Edwards and his crew created an Oscar-worthy sci-fi without breaking the bank. Find out how he worked alongside Industrial Light & Magic and his editing team to film all over the globe efficiently, creating scenes in days that could often take weeks. We learn his methods for saving on expensive film equipment, how to shoot stunning shots on an iPhone, and why these Academy Award nominations are extra special for the cast and crew of The Creator.
Gareth also joined the team from Corridor Crew in a great fun episode to break down the VFX of the film and the amazing work ILM did.
Sam and Wren are joined by Director Gareth Edwards to break down his most recent blockbuster film, The Creator, which is nominated for the Academy Award for Best Visual Effects!
