Much of what鈥檚 amazing about The Amazing Spider-Man 2 鈥� namely, its jaw-dropping visual effects 鈥� was created right here in the 604. Last Friday, Sony Imageworks invited a handful of journalists to its Yaletown studio to learn more about its massive contribution to the blockbuster (1,000 shots) from the film鈥檚 VFX bigwigs: VFX听supervisor Jerome Chen, digital effects supervisor David Smith and animation supervisor David Schaub. 麻豆传媒映画artists wielded their special magic on the film鈥檚 three major villains (Electro, Green Goblin, and Rhino), as well as digital doubles of the heroes, photo-realistic battles and otherwise unfilmmable moments. (鈥淸Emma Stone] was great at doing a lot of her own stunts, but she balked at a 400-foot fall,鈥� said Chen.)
