The Indian movie industry has come a long way in terms of technical advancements and VFX technology. One of the recent examples of this is the movie RRR, directed by S.S. Rajamouli. The movie has set new benchmarks in the Indian movie industry with its cutting-edge VFX and visual effects that have left audiences awestruck.
The VFX team for RRR included more than 1000 artists from different parts of the world, including India, the United Kingdom, Canada, and the United States. The team was led by VFX supervisor Srinivas Mohan, who is known for his work in movies like Baahubali.
One of the most challenging VFX shots in the movie was the climax sequence, which involved a massive war scene with over 5,000 people on the battlefield. The VFX team had to create a virtual army with digital characters, which required a lot of time and effort. The team also used motion capture technology to capture the movements of the actors and create realistic battle scenes.
The movie used a combination of practical effects and VFX to create a seamless and immersive experience for the audience. For example, the scene where Ram Charan’s character Komaram Bheem jumps off a cliff was shot using a combination of practical effects and VFX. The VFX team used a 3D scan of the location to create a digital model of the cliff, which was then used to create the VFX shot.
Another challenging VFX shot was the scene where Ram Charan’s character Komaram Bheem jumps off a cliff and lands on the ground with a thud. The VFX team used a combination of motion capture technology and camera tracking to create a realistic effect of the character jumping off the cliff.
The VFX in RRR has set a new benchmark for the Indian movie industry. The VFX team has done an incredible job of creating a visually stunning movie that has left audiences amazed. The movie has proved that the Indian movie industry can compete with international movies in terms of VFX technology and has opened up new avenues for Indian filmmakers to explore.
