Much has been said about Spielberg’s uncanny ability to tell a story within a frame and set up geography, and usually folks use his long oners as examples of this talent.
But here’s an innocuous 26-second-long shot from “Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade” (1989) that does all those things.

Got to give some input on AI in Hollywood (across VFX & other departments) more so practical use today (ML/CV) www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/bus...
For Hollywood, AI Is a Double-Edged Sword
It’s cheaper, but also a job killer. Expect disruption in VFX, fiercer labor fights and, possibly, an invigoration of the production landscape.

Reminder that if you haven’t seen Oblivion do yourself a favor and watch it. Then listen to the amazing soundtrack on repeat. Joe & Claudio kicking off a great team dynamic back in 2011.

Every time someone repeats the totally incorrect myth that "CGI" is cheaper than practical effects—it's not and that's a ridiculous statement—'because "CGI" isn't unionized,' they're unwittingly giving ammunition to studios who are arguing that unionization would be bad for the industry (it's not).

Seems to be a lot more creatives showing up here which is a good thing. Rather talk more film, art, tech and craft than all the other noise

HERE was an amazing, endearing and technically challenging film to be a part of from the very early days again getting work with the same production team I did Pinocchio with. I always know when I get a call from Kevin Baillie it’s either to talk cars or tech and any projects we do together are fun.
