Budget Destroying Effects (Feat. Ben Brewer)
Episode 9, May 03, 2023, 08:30 AM
Today’s episode is mega! We’re joined by amazing filmmaker and VFX artist Ben Brewer. We read pages 17-18 and break down sequences in the Coens’ films that feature eye-popping—and potentially budget-breaking—special effects. We analyze what makes an effects shot “work”, and the crucial story context that that entails. We also dive into Ben’s mind-blowing short film A FOLDED OCEAN and hear about his work on The Daniels’ chart-topping and Oscar-winning EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE which took the world by storm in 2022.
Coens covered: The Hudsucker Proxy, O Brother Where Art Thou, A Serious Man, Hail Caesar
