I could recollect days when a podcast reveals that the movie Jurrasic Park of 1993 had about 50 VFX shots. Nowadays the biggest VFX movies have between 1,000 and 3,000 VFX shots, not only that even non-VFX movies, like period dramas and Adam Sandler comedies, now have many of VFX shots.

The transition from 50 VFX shots and 1000 VFX shots in minimum have made a remarkable indication that incorporation of VFX shots in the movie is the trend. Taking the example, a Bollywood movie Kedarnath which hit the theatres at the end of the year 2018 has met with decisive reactions at the box office primarily because of its VFX work.

To showcase the original alluring beauty of nature, the landscapes, the mountains, the hustle bustle of the Pahari life, the studio has especially worked in increasing the light as well as the saturation level of the content to make it cinematically perfect and enhanced.

The movie has shown a lot of old Kedarnath temple shots which was practically not possible as the temple top was utterly damaged because of the Uttarakhand flood. Thus the studio had to recreate the temple top of the old temple from the stock images. Not only that the team also created the whole backdrop of mountains and glaciers for the movie since at present there are no glaciers capped mountains around the temple after the Uttarakhand flood.

As Kedarnath has set a new benchmark with the help of VFX, we hope to see more such stunning imagery in the future from After and other studios as well!
