Regarding the conversation surrounding ‘@NapoleonMovie having no CGI’. Below are the VFX credits. The film has some amazing VFX, stunt and practical FXs, including exploding body parts, exploding horses, exploding boats, crowd duplication, full CG boats, full CG environments all burning, water simulations, ice simulations, matte paintings, bullet hits, and much more. There are 15 VFX companies and 369 artists involved, but since some companies are only referenced by name, I suspect this number is much higher. Anyway, congratulations to: @MPCVFX (153 artists) @ILMVFX (80 artists) @BlueBoltVFX (50 artists) @outpostvfx (20 artists) Light VFX (12 artists) @oneofusvfx (8 artists) FPX (4 artists) @freefolkstudios (4 artists) Ghost VFX (no artists credited) Cheap Shot (no artists credited) Argon (4 artists) @TheThirdFloor (no artists credited) @Imaginarium_UK (4 artists) @visualskies (4 artists) The Magic Camera Company (26 artists) I hope everyone on Twitter understands that if you don't see the CGI, it doesn’t mean it’s not there. Also, never believe a marketing piece about a movie; they are filled with out-of-context statements and misunderstandings. We all need to be better a policing this nonsense, so join me in spreading the word that Napoleon has a shit tonne of CGI and VFX. #CGI #VFX #Napoleon #RidleyScott



@JpVassallo @WildBrainHQ It took a few tries but translating the code in the end credits made it even better. 🐶
