Few months in the writing of next season's script, the "Game of Thrones" filming crew finally started getting actors on their feet again. It's been said that the next season's outbreak includes scenes at the Trsteno Arboretum in Croatia. Moreover, Dubrovnik is also being assembled for future filming and it has also been said that it features a few surprises in the upcoming season. DuList provided a few photographs of all this:
They actually build the sets. Awesome!
ReplyDeleteLOL did you think that those places existed?
DeleteThat's lol worthy? Could be CGI... miniature sets with trick photography use, some of the scenes could be done on sound stages. You know.... the same way a lot of shows and movies are shot.
DeleteNo. He did not think that. He obviously assumed it was all CGI. A lot of it is actually, but they do build small sets to compliment the CGI backgrounds. Which is why the show looks so good.
DeleteThe next time you want to say something smart it would be prudent to think before you attempt it.
Leave him alone... hes from the shire. he doesnt get out much
DeleteLOL didn't you know he thought they were all just chroma key composited?
DeleteThey could easly build half, and CG the other half. I guess Frodo is impressed by how much of it is real versus how much is CG.
Delete1) Old castles and forts could be used with careful cinematography. 2) Special effects do wonders, how do you think they filmed 300, all behind green screen. How about Lord of the Rings. Yes its a stretch to think all these places exists but you think you're so smart and you're not.
DeleteWait... you mean all those places and white walkers DONT exist?!!?
DeleteI suspect that Frodo figured they were all/mostly CGI...
He meant they could have been CG...
DeleteCheck out their youtube channel and you can see all the effort put into their sets/costumes/etc.
Some shows use a lot of stages and blue/greenscreens. Those sets aren't cheap to build ya know.
Deletethats basicly why these series are so expensive....
DeleteNo he's implying he thought they were mostly composited, which they ARE. They just have a few props on location and composite cliffs, castles, towers, streets etc in
DeleteGreen/blue screens? It's only because of the fact that they have a big budget that they build the sets.
DeleteMy guess is he thought it was made with a computer...
DeleteLook at Spartacus... the places do not exist and yet they didnt build them. It's called cgi
DeleteHow would Frodo Baggins know anything about our ways? Idiot.
DeleteNo, but the volume of CG would lead you to believe that most things were just filmed in front of a green/blue screen. By building sets they can add a level of realism that can sometimes be overlooked with CG.
DeleteLOL did you think that CGI could easily make a lot of sets?
DeleteThere is only one thing we say to Trolls, 'Not today.'
DeleteYeak like the Death Star. Coz it's realll.
DeleteConsidering Frodo seemed excited about the fact they film on sets as opposed to being upset that they don't film 'on location,' it's safe to assume he was happy there are no green screens involved.
DeleteNo, they probably thought it was CGI. Don't be an idiot.
DeleteComputer graphics?
Deletehe means it's not cgi...
DeleteHe probably thought they were done mostly with CGI, as I did.
DeleteNo, he thought they were CGI.
DeleteHe probably thought a lot of it was CGI.
Deleteno you tard he thought it was CGI....
DeleteThink he was prolly more comparing it to star wars where a lot of it was done with CG.
DeleteNah douche he meant that they aren't computer generated.
Deletei think he means as opposed to green screen/CGI
DeleteCGI dumb-ass.
DeleteThese days elaborate-looking sets are usually green-screened, not constructed.
Deleteediting
DeleteI think Frodo thought it was mostly CGI and was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't.
DeleteI'd think it would be a combination myself. Non CGI for area's and shot's close to the actors and CGI for anything more peripheral or long distance. Best of both worlds that way.
I think he means as compared to using just CGI, like many shows and movies do.
Deleteactually in most series with elaborate sets, the scenery is computer generated and the real life set is pretty minimal
Deletei think he means as opposed to cg set extensions...
DeleteIf you look at Boardwalk Empire, so much of the stuff is CGI -- even some of the basic boardwalk stuff (like the Ritz!) I too expected a lot more green screen...
DeleteOr CGI but that's cool to laugh at a stranger
DeleteI think master Frodo was referring to CGI effects rather than good old fashioned set building.
DeleteA man can dream..
DeleteNah, he probably thought everything was done with CGI.
DeleteHe was probably thinking CGI.
Deletei'm pretty sure Mr. Frodo meant that they aren't CGI... They are actually built.
DeleteHe thought they used CGI...
DeleteHe more than likely assumed they were added in post production, as is often the norm in non premium cable shows.
DeleteYeah idiot. Everyone knows they have to spend all their money on renting the dragons.
Delete"Hoped" is more the word I was thinking.
Deleteno dumbass he thought it was CGI
DeleteI think what Baggins said was stated given the amount of CGI is used for GoT.
DeleteHe probably expected CGI smartass
DeleteI think they meant that they build them rather than use CGI.
DeleteHe thought it was CG
Deletea lot of it is CG as well
DeleteI think Frodo assumed there was more CGI.
Deletehe probably meant CGI
DeleteMost production companies would just use CGI
DeleteI think he means this... It's not CGI!
Deleteno, more like it's awesome that they don't use CGI , I guess!
DeleteIt's awesome that they build the sets instead of making them from CGI.
DeleteThey could have been partially or entirely green screened.
DeleteI dreamed they did.
DeleteKnowledge ruins the magic in life
Which in a way, is magic.
Maybe he thought that the filmed settings are CG?
DeleteI think he was referring to the overuse of CGI sets.
DeleteI dunno if you read the same thing as i did, but he prolly thought it was animated, the most of it..
DeleteNo he thought they were photoshopped or only 2 dimensional. Please mind I am only hypothesizing.
DeleteThey meant they aren't just CGI, obviously.
DeleteActually built versus generated with computer.
DeleteProbably thought they were CGI rather than actual sets.
DeleteWell he IS from Middle Earth, you know.
DeleteMaybe his point of excitement was building EVERYTHING from scratch vs. going to existing, but lesser known places AND building sets on top of it.
DeleteI think he likely thought that these places were green-screened.
Deletehe probably thought that they were CGI, however the sets in GOT are both CGI and real life sets.
DeleteThe places exists. The props are built.
DeleteLOL did you think I don't know of CG?
DeleteA lot of them do. They also build some.
DeleteAre you retarted? Frodo was clearly thinking it was CGI.
DeleteLAWLAWLAWLAWL
DeleteHAHAHAHAHAHAH
I think he thought they were CGI.
Deleteyou're probably not aware, that most things are cgi these days, even sets.
DeletePretty sure they meant instead of cgi.
Deletelol... new level of stupid... you know cgi?
DeleteNo, he thought they were CGI.
DeleteNo Anon, he probably just presumed it was all CGI, as everything usually is now. I'm impressed they actually build things up as well.
ReplyDeleteYOU MEAN THE TV SERIES ROME WASN'T ACTUALLY FILMED IN ROME ?!!?!??!?!
ReplyDeleteNo, 90% of the set is already present and exist in real world. Just google the places where they shoot.
ReplyDeleteThe new series of Downton Abbey is looking good.
ReplyDeletecrazy enough, majority of sets are crafted by foam.
ReplyDeleteThey could've been done in CGI like a lot of productions nowadays.
ReplyDeletethe fact that they took time to build sets is impressive and noteworthy.
HODOOOOOOOOOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteNo wonder it takes them close to a year to do 10 episode. I get a headache just thinking about all the work that goes into building those sets.
ReplyDeleteAlso it's not uncommon for Frodo to think it may have all been CGI, like Heroes or other shows.
how could they not, it is documented!
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure he meant rather than green screen. Using green screen is very common nowadays instead of building sets. 300, for example, was almost 100% green screen. So was most of Asgard in Thor.
ReplyDeleteFirst picture = boobiiiiieeees
ReplyDeleteMaybe Frodo thought CG was even more heavily used than it already is
ReplyDeleteI think he was probably remarking on the lack of CGI
ReplyDeleteCGI Maybe?
ReplyDeleteBuilt instead of CGI
ReplyDeleteI think he was referring to the fact that the sets are not CGI.
ReplyDeletei'm assuming he thought they were CG..
ReplyDeletethey do exist in my heart
ReplyDeleteYou haven't travelled much, have you? Places like that exists all over the world.
ReplyDeleteCuriously awaiting for the new season :)
ReplyDeleteMany sets are virtual and most distant castles are not models, they're CGI.
ReplyDeleteI think he meant as opposed to green screen
ReplyDeletehe's never been out of the shire.
ReplyDeleteActually, Trsteno park is more beautiful than CGI shots you see in GoTT, you ignorant twats.
ReplyDeleteNo he was assuming they used CGI. Really?
ReplyDeleteThey used CGI to some places to make it more realistic.
