CGI and special effects are older than you think | Is This Art?

Teacher or professor: RijksTube
Subject: Arts
Content of the Lesson: You might say there is something off about the final fight scene in the movie black panther. It kind of feels like you are watching a computer game, right? So, why is it that some visual effects artists convince with their use of CGI and others don’t? And how is this linked to 17th century artists Van Der Helst and Heda? Welcome to Is This Art? Where we take a closer look at pop culture and try to answer the age-old question: is this art? Thanks for visiting our RijksTube Channel! This is where we share quick, fun and informative bite-sized videos about the intersection between art and pop culture.
