[id; a tweet by nathan bernhardt @jonberhardt: "why do marvel movies do so much stuff in CGI surely they could have just had wardrobe-" makeup and wardrobe is a union crew. the CGI animation sweatshop is not. it really is that simple. end id/]

This is probably why Cats was a CGI nightmare. Rather than higher a costume designer to re-imagine the leggings and fur hats for a modern audience. Which would have required hiring union work people to make the hundreds of costumes they'd have needed they just CGI ed some cat fur onto their actors.

Did the CGI team do their best and give it their all, probably. But they shouldn't have been hired. They shouldn't have been put in a position of making costumes and worlds and extras, and, and, and. They should have been hired for what CGI is best at, special effects when physical special effects aren't possible and the rest should've been left to physical craftspeople.

There's nothing wrong with CGI when used sparingly and married with physical effects and costumes to enhance the realness of the world but when you plop some actors in morph suits on a green screen set and just replace everything with CGI your movie sucks.

Compare the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings and you'll understand what I mean.

CGI people deserve a union, deserve respect, and deserve not to be treated as an isnta movie factory. They deserve to be allowed to hone their craft and dedicate time and energy to creating the kind of world-building effects we all know and love.

“Hair on this movie was one of the biggest challenges, but also the most fun. Considering many of the main characters in this movie are human, or are demigods who frequently resemble humans, there’s a lot of hair to animate. Moana herself is unlike a lot of other Disney characters. Like Mulan, she’s often messing with her hair, sometimes wearing it in a bun and sometimes allowing it to get drenched or blow in the wind. That’s a lot of different types of hair to animate, too, making the process even more challenging.”
