Cinema – a world of exaggerations; it’s cool yet acceptable to watch Peter Parker flying in the sky, Eric Bana expands when gets angry, and what not, something that cannot even possible in the real world. The world of entertainment is continuously introducing different graphical inserts to make the movie more appealing and interesting to hook audience at large. Name at least one or two of your favorite cartoons that you are still enjoying or if you’re not; you must be noticing that your favorite cartoon character started looking a bit different nowadays; just a little bit real. Thanks to the CGI – Computer-generated Imagery, that is turning our favorite imaginative world close to realism.

The Best Cinema Experience

CGI used in films, TV programs, games and commercials, and sometimes in print media. Although Video games use real-time computer graphics, the pre-rendered cut scenes and intros are the typical CGI.

Games like Dota 2, World of Warcraft and Emperior are some of the examples. If you are not fortunate enough to have a hold on these games yet because they are not available in your region, you can always have the access with a best Gaming VPN.

CGI Characters

Do you know that with CGI character don’t need to be physically available on the set, images are enough to create the realistic appearance?

Yes, you heard it right, let’s revive your memory and see how we have been fooled in recent films.

• Richard Parker: a CGI tiger that we saw back in 2012, in the movie Life of Pi. You can never distinguish the scenes with Richard and ones which featured King, the real tiger. Only a few of the scenes captured with the real King; may be all the other animals used in the movie were also animated.
• Davy Jones: you must have seen the Pirates of the Caribbean, the entire exterior of Davy Jones was CGI; one cannot deny the fact that he wasn’t ready to create. Have a look

• Transformers: We can’t ignore the CGI effects in this movie; they were spot-on. Creating animations that instantly change cars into towering transformers is not an easy job; Optimus Prime alone created 10,000 individual parts, and then render the entire project of with Industrial Light & Magic 38 hours.
• The Fast and the Furious 7 and the Hunger Games: the sudden death of Paul Walker and Philip Seymour Hoffman, enforce directors to continue the filming process using the CGI versions of both the actors for the remaining scenes.
• Avatar: The beautiful landscape and realistic dinosaurs in the movie don’t exist in the real world, thanks to the unique effects of being so magical. The statuesque blue Na’vi created with striking facial movements, with incredibly innovative facial-motion recognition techniques.
• Nordic Subaru Commercial: Graphical inserts for use in car commercials are pretty impressive, but this one is exceptional. This entire ad is CGI, using Vray, 3ds Max, and After Effects.

Other than Cinema…

• World of Warcraft: one of the top rated yet addicted MMORPG -Massively multiplayer online role-playing games, World of Warcraft, use CGI to create an incredibly realistic fantasy world.
• Surgery Implantation: One of the many medical uses of CGI is the creation and preparation of implants; medical experts are using CGI  for cranial implants. It used for victims of head injury and trauma. Surgeons create patient-specific implants with CGI, the technology used in surgeries before it gets widely available.
• In Courtrooms: Computer-generated imagery has been using in courtrooms, since early 2000s, helping judges to better visualize the sequence of events, hypothesis or evidence.

Why CGI?

CGI is for creating visual effects because of the higher quality and effects are controllable than other physically based processes. Such as hiring extras for crowd scenes or constructing miniatures for shots. It also allows the creation of images that couldn’t be possible and with any other technology.

As mentioned it also allows an artist to act without the use of other-left, expensive set pieces, or props.

Recent CGI software’s increase computer speeds that allowing individual artists and small producers to produce professional grade games, films, and fine art right from their home computers.Does CGI bring ratings?

CGI entertaining both adults and children, transforming gaming world and dominating cinemas since last decade; it’s been one of the well-known technologies in the world entertainment. It all boils down to a fact: people pay to be entertained. We know CGI is impressive when it’s done well, but again the core is always a good story-line, believable yet relatable characters and the content should empathize with or despise. Just as lousy writing distracts the reader from the story similarly, unrealistic or over-the-top Cleft lead to walk-outs at the cinema.

Unlike technologies that have been and gone in the presence of CGI, no doubt, it’s improving all the time. Although CGI is signing traditional animation’s death warrant, like all new things, CGI was also a novelty, that now becomes a norm.

The fiction premieres next to the streaming platform of DC next year 2018.

DC’s new action series, Titans on The Young Titans is increasing its cast. If it confirmed a few months ago the participation of Tegan Croft as Raven and a few days ago that of Brenton Thwaites as Dick Grayson. Now the last to join the cast are Minka Kelly and Alan Ritchson.

The actors immerse themselves in the series of action based on the creation of a group of young superheroes of the universe DC led by Dick Grayson in which they will interpret Dove and Hawk respectively. The two are a couple with a very romantic character, vigilantes that carried away by aggressiveness, strategy and defense.

We have been able to see both Kelly and Ritchson in other projects such as Friday Night Lights. In which the actress played Lyla Garrati while the American actor has appeared in CW’s Smalville. The premiere of the new fiction in real action not expected until 2018. Done simultaneously with the launch of the new DC streaming platform.

The seventh and penultimate season of the series closed with more than 12 million spectators in the USA.

That’s the end of the seventh season of  ‘Game of Thrones’ was going to be a ball was already sung. But the results have been so spectacular that they have exceeded the expectations of the most optimistic HBO executives. The US payment chain has reported that the seventh episode of the penultimate installment of  the series based on the saga ‘Song of Ice and Fire’. Which issued in the US on August 27 with the title of ‘The Dragon and The Wolf ‘. Brought together an average of 12.1 million viewers.

This figure is 36% more than the 8.9 million people who saw the end of the sixth installment. To this audience added the one of the repetitions and transmissions in the applications on demand of HBO that increases the general scores on Sunday to 16,5 million people.

However, the figure may seem low compared to a  final of the Champions League with Spanish team at stake (which is around 10 million people). But it must be taken into account that it is broadcast on a payment channel in the US and that there is an option to see it deferred. Of course, there is still to add the entire world audience by ‘streaming’. Which can give colossal figures despite the great ‘pirate’ that has suffered the series.

The Season

Overall, this seventh and penultimate season of Game of Thrones has attracted a total of 30.8 million viewers, an increase of almost eight million compared to the previous season. A record that can considered twofold given the problem of hackers, who stole HBO data and content – including footage from previous unreleased episodes of Game of Thrones and leaked it online.

In the absence of the last season Game of thrones has dismissed with the plot in all the high: a zombie dragon an illicit romance and a revenge. In the next installment the unfinished battle will have to developed to take hold of the Iron Throne to reign on the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros and also to face the zombie army of the White Walkers, led by the Night King of the undead, who march south and threaten to destroy humanity.

No Emmy Awards

It should noted that despite these excellent audience results and also very positive reviews. This delivery of Game of Thrones not recognized in awards as in other years and is that the rules of the Emmy (the Oscars on TV. Which delivered on September 17 in Los Angeles) make clear that cannot present to the awards those productions that released when the TV season has ended Conventional in June.

This delivery of Game of thrones arrived in July. It was delay to be able to roll outdoors in areas of  raw winter, as required by the plot. But the rules are inflexible and this installment of the series will have to wait for the next edition of the Emmys in 2018.
