I still think the pirates movies did one of the best jobs at CGI and VFX I’ve ever seen. Every time I watch them I’m always blown away. They were way ahead of their time!

The original pirates trilogy had the perfect balance of practical effects and CGI.

Pirates of the carribean even today looks better than most of the 2022 cgi movies... Avatar and Pirates are really ahead of their time.

A great applause not only to the special effects creators, but also to the actors: They have to imagine it all in their head in order to act right

Imagine that the first three movies of Pirates were made in the 2000s and their effects stand superior even compared to movies made in 2010s and 2020s

I've recently been rewatching Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy and how well the special effects hold up is astounding. It goes to show what actually giving VFX artists time and money can do, unlike so many Disney (especially Marvel) movies these days don't do, thus resulting in the inferior to very bad VFX.

The fact that Depp makes us believe all this is actually real, is full testament to his talent and dedication.

I actually never noticed the amount of CGI used in these films, and I've developed a new appreciation for how good of a job the Pirates franchise has done.

Removing the VFX and the CGI would make the franchise fail , but removing Johnny Depp makes it more failure.

Who knew that a movie based off a theme park ride would lead to such a mighty successful franchise? Kudos to Disney for managing to pull it off. It's a shame Disney won't open a park in my nation no matter how much I beg for it

Thing about the Pirates movies, the first 3 at least. Had extreme amounts of practical effects, even going to the Caribbean, building whole ships and damaging them when no one was on them to give reference when cgi. Marvel will now just build houses and backgrounds out of CG when these places exist and are filmable or sets are buildable

"I'm dead ... that's it I won't be at 6" What a prediction!

Pirates of the Carribbean is the best series ever made, the Storyline, Actors, CGI and VFX team, the Villains, Direction and ofcourse Captain Jack Sparrow

The first 3 POTC films are pretty awesome

I can't believe there was no one on the ship in the scene where it was being destroyed, the movement of the crew in the background was so realistic with the explosion effects that I couldn't imagining that they weren't really there.

It's also insane that the first few movies came out so long ago but the CGI and VFX effects still look up to date and I don't recall anyone ever being able to point out any discrepancy in them which is absolutely insane. When you see Davy Jones for the first time you can easily think the movie was made in 2021 by how incredibly good he looks (and everyone else included)

I think one of the big reasons, Pirates of the Caribbean CGI and even Star Wars CGI looks so good, is they're not pumping out so many projects per year like marvel. Sometimes they take yearly breaks for Star Wars or they release fewer shows than Marvel, and Pirates movies come out every few years which is not as often as Marvel, who makes a new film that will release almost every 3 to 4 months a year.

Just WOW. The behind the scenes artists really deserve more time in the limelight.

What is a pirate's favorite letter? You think it be 'R', but a pirate's first love will always be the 'C'! What’s a pirate’s favorite hymn to sing in church? Arrrr-ve Maria! What is a pirate's least favorite workout? Planks, though they don't like Peg Day either because they never see the results. And can't forget about their ARRRRms!

Damn that last line from Johnny hurts now don’t it. No one else will ever be my Captain Jack Sparrow

I watched all the POTC multiple times with close attention, in order to pick out errors to no avail! The film really succeeded in using best of the creative talents then without mincing finances. My respects to the writers, directors, artists/FVX, costumers, actors, engineers, technologies they made the fable a breathing reality.

I don’t care how much VFX they used the only thing I know is that it is one of the best film Hollywood ever produced. #parley

Back in the days when there wasn't much cg technology but directors still presented us great stories.

I feel like the big difference is that in the pirates films the effect are more like an aid to the actual visuals Like almost everything that is shown is based on and actual thing Like the destruction of the black pearl by the kraken is an actual ship being destroyed by two big pipes. Then just lay the tentacles over thag

this is very cool to see. i also knew prior that they built 1:1 scale models of every ship in the film. the amount of work that went into these amazing films is incredible. its a shame johnny depp won’t be acting as jack sparrow anymore.

It's nice to see you highlighting the VFX in the bad movies, not just the good ones. The CGI was still top-notch throughout the series, and it's worth highlighting the artistry of the VFX crew, regardless of the films' overall quality.

People don't realize how much work goes into editing and graphics for these movies. Whatever time the actors spent filming. I bet the graphic artist spent 10 times that and probably many of them. God I love this stuff

This doesn't answer the important questions: Why can't pirates use sign language? Because the hook makes everything sound like a question! How much does it cost for pirates to get their ears pierced? About a Buccaneer! Where do Pirates go to play games? The Arrrr-cade! Where do pirates buy their hook hands from? From a second hand shop!

And it makes the acting that much more amazing since they can't even see how the scene is gonna look

This is what separates forgettable from memorable. Attention to detail and actually caring about what and how you do something

Wow !! Great video appreciate you taking your time and teaching us about these details behind the scene

The amount of work put in is INSANE. Inspiring.

everybody knows the actors and the directors, but the cgi guys and developers are the real heroes...

It's so good I haven't really had to think about how good it is... Probably the best execution of VFX yet to be seen!

Amazing video...I love the idea of pulling off layers of GCI to show the individual components.

Even as a kid of 8 years old i realized this movie had something special, its very well made

Thanx psycho Amber Turd for killing the franchise. Last one was not such a banger as the previous ones thou.

I think the reason people complain about Marvel is because they lack that certain charm the VFX in Pirates of the Caribbeans had. They didn’t simply create all of their effects virtually and work with that, they took the practical effects they knew and tied those in as well to make things feel more authentic even if that was simply using a real object for texture scans instead of using a resource gallery. I think a lot of movies now rely too much on the ease of technology, and while yes a lot of the shortcuts it provides were already being done, the more developments are made the more practical tools and effects get thrown by the wayside when they could offer so much. Same thing is happening in the gaming industry, there’s an intense focus on creating the most realistic looking game possible when really that goal bears no creativity. We live in a time where we’re being forced to learn what the right balance is between tech and humanity, and it’ll take us a while to reach that point both personally within society and within the entertainment industries.

Just watched the first one a few days ago after many years. It definitely still holds up!

I was 10 when I watched the first pirates of the Caribbean with my family at the west Edmonton mall in Canada and it scared me so much I had to leave the theater room twice during the movie! The zombie pirates nearly traumatized me, so it is seriously one of the best movies ever made.

Hands to actors. Not only are they acting with lines and all, they have to see what we're seeing while doing lines...and all they see as we saw here was blue screens and a lot of fakery on sets. Kudos.

Great team effort. Truly some master pieces.

very good explanation which I hardly understand. Mad respect for those who has been devoloped the software and those who know how to use it👍

I recently watched all the Pirates of the Caribbean for the first time. The effects were AMAZING! Wish I watched them sooner! No wonder everyone wants a sixth Pirates movie!

Pirates of the Caribbean isn't critisized because they did a good job (except for movie 5) and did a lot of live footage. A lot of Pirates of the Caribbean is practical, filmed on water, and a lot of their cgi scenes involve practicality. They have scenes with cgi but they are filmed on real boats and took way mlre effort than cgi'ing a boat. For instance the maelstrom scene was filmed on two boats inside infron of a green screen, the boats were on a 45⁰ angle and all the fighting was real etc, they even had water pouring down all day, the actors were soaked and frozen during the entire filming process, Marvel would have cgi'd most of that, including the boats.

Really it is just incredible the amount of talented people who work behind and make it all possible. I truly hope that they are extremely well paid… Wonderful and incredible people…. And back then with hand made flying space ships, monsters made by hand moving frame by frame…. It’s just amazing. And all the great artist painters who by hand painted backgrounds…. The studio pays high money for the actors…. Yes. But do they well compensate the geniuses behind that Red Carpet. From a Montreal, Quebec, Canada film buff . Peace and love to all.

Not what I expected from the short, I expected you editing stuff in funy stuff but got a really interesting and short informational video on the vfx of potc, nice

This is why pirates of the Caribbean will always be my favorite movie!

CGI on Davy Jones is still one of the best uses I’ve ever seen

Amazing how much work just to make 2 minute sence. Respect for the genius peoples because I know how hard is in Unreal engine or in blender.

Lol, about that ship fight at the end of the third POTC film had a flaw. The three ships could never engage in that exact shootout as they all had cross-sails, which required them to have a tail wind, so either one of them or two of them would be sailing bow-first into the wind. While it was a spectacular end of Cutler Becket, it could not have happened as all three ships had sails showing full wind in them but two were heading in the opposite direction than the third.

The difference between PotC and Marvel is that the PotC crew dedocate themselves completely to their craft. Its not just a job, its their passion project. PotC launches a film every few years, Marvel launches multiple films throughout the year.

Wow, the editing in movies is insanely hardcore.

The most stunning special effects I've ever seen. I love these movies.

It's really commendable when filmmakers pioneer and develop new ways to bring their movies to life making breakthroughs for entire industry.

I don't really like how movies have become. I kinda enjoy more of the older stuff where they used more arts and crafts approach. Even if some look a bit silly I find it more enjoyable to watch.

It's crazy.. almost seems like visual effects creators should be the famous celebrities. Take away all of their work and actors aren't really that great..

When i was a child i loved the original trilogy of pirates pf carribean, and now i’m studying computer graphics at university and i wanna work with cgi and visual effects I’m grateful of having the possibility to watch these movies when i was a child

I love VFX and making off! It's a amazing video! New subscriber here!!

So amazing!!!! You all are incredibly talented. Thank you!!

I'd like to watch an hour on one effect. Like the hair animation or the building of a digital ship.

the end was so sweet 🥰im glad you agree!!

Salazar's FX were a delight to watch. I couldn't get my eyes off from the floaty hair and coat.

every part fo the franchise has its pros and cons. but i absolutely love all of them

I just watched all the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, i mean i knew there was a lot of cgi, but seeing it like this, im amazed 👍

Great effects i seen in list of one mine favourites

Love seeing "how it's done" and "out-takes"

Bro the Pirates scenes... Oh my goodness. Shiet is Just Insane.. It is so well done, right from the Writing to dialogues to costumes and to VFX Brilliant!

If only the movie plots and dialogue were as skillfully constructed.

It sounds like the production time for the film was more than enough for all the different plates to be shot while also working with the fx team to make sure the shots benefit the cgi. This is a big difference from the way Disney/Marvel is operating now.

Can't believe how much effort goes into making a single scene

Please put the scenes without VFX on the top half of the screen and simultaneously put the scenes that audience sees on the bottom half of the screen.

0:15 Which movie is that from?

It was interesting to watch! Thanks!

Holy crap. The water too???!!! That’s just mind blowing to me. So many things I thought were all practical

the difference between Marvel's CGI and Pirates' CGI is in Pirates movies there is 75% acting with 25% CGI. while in Marvel movies there is 95% CGI and 5% acting.

I love the pirates of the Caribbean, Now that Johnny's innocence has been proven i hope there will be a movie that tells a proper ending to the story of the greatest pirate you have ever seen.

I never took this movie for granted , it was way ahead of its time n still is even tho it’s in the past now

Isn’t it crazy tech has become so advanced that it’s easier to build contraptions to make a boat look like it’s moving in water instead of actually filming a boat moving in water?

Although these films use loads if cgi, its pretty impressive to me that they simulated the kraken destroying a boat practically before adding cgi on top of the shot

I didn't like Salazar's hair, I just found it distracting. It seemed like they were trying to replicate what they had with Jones' tentacles and that was the best they could come up with. I wish they hadn't done another plot about a cursed crew at all for that movie. They already had two different stories about cursed ship crews, there's gotta be something else you can do.

Fascinating and jaw dropping

The effects are so good

Wouldn't had been interested in these videos had it not been for Corridor personally, but it's great to see more credit being given to filmmakers.

What a cool gig… where do I sign up? I'm just wondering what their credit is in the film… Green screen guys (and girls) or visual effects performers?

Nothing is more amazing about Pirates of Caribbean if not bcoz of the acting of Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow.

A brand new vfx channel to watch?! Yay

The water cg shots in pirates are unbelievably good

that is some next level stuff

Thank you so much!! This is great

Carnal está muy chido 👌🏻 tu contenido, deberías tener traducción o subtítulos para tus seguidores en México 🇲🇽 saludos

This video blew my mind in just the first minute. All that shipbattle, undead stuff, and Davey Jones mutations were CGI? I thought it was all real. Mind blown.

Now i know how to appreciate a fantasy movie! Especially pirates of the Carribbean and will watch it again later. ❤️

Rewatching currently 😂😍

Sir you are great How to you break down movie graphics I need a tips for Indian movies graphics breakdown please say sir🙏🙏

Id never thought you are British, keep going!

No matter what you debunk or say we'll always love these movies the way they are 😎😎

Pirates of the Caribbean franchise had the perfect mix between CGI and practical effects. And Davy Jones CGI is far better than most of current Marvel films.

Believe it or not the first 3 films had plenty of real ship sets built inside a great warehouse set up so they could move and swing etc with huge blue screen curtains, highly recommend you check out behind the scenes it's awesome especially the work that went into that final battle scene

Amazing...very good bro🙂👍
