Digital effects artists deserve as much respect as the makeup masters we all love and cherish, and the reality is that countless movies we love simply would not be possible without CGI.
This short video breaks down the visual effects seen in Godzilla Resurgence, and we hope it gives you a greater appreciation for the artisans who brought the latest incarnation of the so-called King of the Monsters to life. This movie, needless to say, looks totally freakin’ awesome!
