“New Film ‘Rise of the Planet of the Apes 4: The Birth of a Kingdom’ Wows Audiences with Advanced CGI Techniques”
Released globally today, “Rise of the Planet of the Apes 4: The Birth of a Kingdom” has stunned audiences with its cutting-edge computer graphics (CG) technology. Director Wes Ball revealed that the water in the film, which flows through the orangutan’s fur, was all created using techniques learned from “Avatar 2: Path of Water.”
In an interview, Wes Peck discussed the evolution of CGI and how “Avatar: The Way of Water” provided the foundation for the technology used in “Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes.” He shared that many viewers didn’t even notice the advanced CGI in the trailer, as they deliberately avoided showcasing it.
Wes expressed his excitement for pushing the boundaries of CGI with this film, stating, “I think this is completely new territory for Wētā, and the amount of computer simulation data is far beyond anything they’ve done before. It’s crazy.”
Wētā, a renowned digital effects company from New Zealand, has worked on blockbuster films like “The Lord of the Rings” and “Avatar.” Wes praised the company’s work on creating the intricate water effects and fur simulations for the orangutans in the film.
The plot of “Rise of the Planet of the Apes” follows a new generation of apes after Caesar’s rule, where humans are now living in the shadows. As a young orangutan navigates through a changing world, he must make choices that will shape the future for both apes and humans.
With advanced CGI technology and a compelling storyline, “Rise of the Planet of the Apes 4: The Birth of a Kingdom” promises to be a visually stunning and emotionally engaging film for audiences worldwide.
