8 Titanic
The famous scene in the most popular movie was shot in front of a screen. This was just one of many scenes which looked very different from the finished product. This is not the easiest task.
James Cameron is a director who has mastered special effects. Since his film “Aliens”, he has been at the forefront of special effects. Before that, he was working in films with limited budgets and a lack of technology. With movies such as “The Abyss”, “Terminator II”, “True Lies” and “Strange Days,” he became the king of special effects.
7 I Am Legend
This scene with the dog was one of the most heartbreaking scenes in “I Am Legend“. Robert (Smith) is attacked and infected by the mutant dog. His dog defends him, but unfortunately, he becomes infected as well. Did you ever wonder how that scene was shot? It only takes a man wearing a tight green suit and holding a prosthetic pet. Will Smith also has some incredible acting skills.
The original idea was to use real people as infected characters. However, the test results revealed that they looked more like “angry mimes” than the crew had anticipated. CGI was used to portray the creatures.
