Description
The Official Channel for RocketJump Film School.

RocketJump Film School is, at first glance, an ongoing series of online filmmaking tutorials that follows RocketJump as our company gears up for bigger, better productions and as we learn to push ourselves as filmmakers. But really it's a community built on support, learning, interaction, and a love of filmmaking.

Tutorials, tips and tricks, interviews, podcasts, live streams, events, contests, forums, film commentary, and behind the scenes. New content every week, at every level, from beginning to advanced.

RocketJump Film School is for everyone, regardless of your level of experience, the type of gear you have, or where you're at in life. There will be something for everyone, and as we go forward with this school, it is the filmmakers and community using RJFS that will shape it into what it will ultimately become.

'If they do their job well, no one even notices it,'

Lots of people underappreciate CGI, but you know what REALLY goes unappreciated?
will2see (18 minutes ago)
0:44 - "...the reason we think the CG looks bad is because we only see bad CG." - Exactly, man! You nailed it!

Sometimes it works in the other direction: People complain about how some CGI looks so fake and so unrealistic... but it turns out that it was an actual prop or practical effect. Oftentimes people see "bad CGI" where they want to see it, even where there is no CGI at all.

CGI doesn't ruin movies, never has never will...
ThisIsTheTowne (47 minutes ago)
A solid note to add is Game of Thrones. The amount of CG in that show is insane but can be hard to pick out.
Vorotillian (52 minutes ago)
Being a CG artist is like being a true magician. Bad magic is ones that you can see and look terrible but great magic goes on completely unseen
PowerRedBullTypology (2 hour ago)
Same as plastic surgery. You only notice the bad outcomes..
DenerWitt (2 hour ago)
good CGI = you dont know it is CGI
falkofscrum (2 hours ago)
People: CGI is ugly and sticks out.
FilmmakerIQ (11 hours ago)
FINALLY!!! A well written, well researched essay on the topic that is so crowded with people whining about bad CGI in basically the same 3 or so movies.
1NightInParisOfficial (12 hours ago)
thanks for making this vod. Really annoying to watch people talk about how CGI doesnt matter, tired of it. This is good stuff.
