The sub pic looked great, but it still looked - well - like it had been rendered. From what Dominique told me of AE, it's photorealistic. She pointed to a lot of the work done on Band of Brothers for examples. Massive, massive amounts of stuff on that 10-parter were CGI. That's kinda what we're looking at: subtle stuff. There's some major SFX setpieces, but any of the CGI we want to be unobtrusive and effective and convincing. So, for example, with a battle scene let's say, looking at a field of warring men, the vast plains of troopers in the background are CGI while those in the immediate foreground are actors. That's kinda what we're aiming for: seamless and invisible.
