‘Doctor Strange’ Spoilers, News: Watch How ILM Created The Time Warp Scene In The New Visual Effects Reel
Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) has recently published a new visual effects reel for Marvel's "Doctor Strange." This time, however, the company demonstrated how the mind-bending visuals for the Time Warp scene were created.
Warning to the fans who still haven't seen "Doctor Strange." This article contains spoilers from the movie.
In the new "Doctor Strange" visual effects reel, fans will see the before and after the process that ILM used for the Hong Kong Time Warp scene. To be more precise, it is the scene where Stephen Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) used the mystical artifact, Eye of Agamotto, to turn back the time, Slash Film reported. He had to use the artifact, which contains the Time Stone, to repair the damage caused by the sky portal to the Dark Dimension.
The clip showed how the company used visual effects to make bodies, cars, and other objects fly in the final "Doctor Strange" battle scene. It also includes some shot with the buildings getting restored after its obliteration.
It shouldn't be surprising to see the visual effects reel of "Doctor Strange" out in the open. As what some may remember, the film has been nominated for Oscars 2017 in the visual effects category.
Other nominees in the category include: "Deepwater Horizon," "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story," "The Jungle Book" and "Kubo and the Two Strings." The winner is set to be announced at the Oscars on Sunday, Feb. 26.
Meanwhile, "Doctor Strange" is coming out on DVD and Blu-ray on Feb. 28, GameSpot reported. It will come with 80 minutes of extra materials that contain never before seen footage from the movie like behind-the-scenes, deleted clips and an outtake reel.
The interesting part, however, is the "exclusive look at the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe" bonus material. No specifics were mentioned regarding this bonus in the "Doctor Strange" home copy.
"Doctor Strange," the latest entry in the MCU, was first released in United States theaters on Nov. 4, 2016. Its digital copy, according to reports, was made available on Feb. 14.
