These visual FX videos are always something special to watch, but they’re also a bit worrying too.

Obviously some of the shots in this Boardwalk Empire fx reel could only be created by a computer.

But there are other, more simpler, shots such as the car driving into the Atlantic City Armory, that I was surprised with, thinking that a location could’ve easily been found.

But maybe for tax purposes it’s not possible for production to leave the area it’s in and if suitable locations can’t be found, they’ll be improvised.

But still, at what stage will directors start saying ’screw it, let’s do it all in post’?
