10 CGI Moments In Recent Movies NOBODY Noticed

6. Eddie At The Beach - Venom: Let There Be Carnage

The recent Venom sequel ends with Eddie Brock (Tom Hardy) and Venom getting some well-earned R&R at the beach.

While the sunset certainly looks suspiciously picturesque, you'd be forgiven for assuming that the scene was shot on a real beach and the sky was merely retouched during post-production.

Incredibly, though, the entire beach is fake, with Hardy actually sitting on a small patch of sand on a soundstage in front of a blue screen.

In fact, because so much of the shot was replaced in post, the microphone used to capture Hardy's dialogue didn't even need to be concealed from the camera's view, as it was simply painted out by the film's VFX artists.

Though 98% of the film's CGI moments draw absolute attention to themselves, this is actually pretty clever and shows the benefit of hiring a VFX-savvy filmmaker like Andy Serkis to get the job done.
