Description:


    “Gravity,” this year’s VFX Bafta and Oscar-winner, turns filmmaking on its head. Rather than adding visual effects to a live-action plate, the film is about 80% computer generated, with the live-action elements (Sandra Bullock and George Clooney’s faces) integrated seamlessly with their CG spacesuits and surroundings.
