Jumps have been made from higher well before CG. We didn't get the full jump on screen so who knows from how high the stunt man really fell?

This is the exact scene that caused the problem.

The end of this Jack Ryan S2 clip

I would bet money that there are CGI elements in that scene.





I mean, maybe they actually had a stuntman make that jump but that doesn’t strike me as a difficult stunt to do on a green screen with wires.

When people talk about the cost of CGI, I don’t think this is what they mean. There’s a difference between mixing two practical shots with a green screen vs. rendering entire elements of a shot from nothing.

I assume you watched the clip… how would they get the angles and the zoom in/out as well as the whole jump in one frame?

I mean, how would they fake the final cut of that scene where it’s the full jump on a green screen with wires?

The angles are just a matter of using multiple cameras or doing it in multiple takes (which is also easier on a green screen).

A better question is - if it’s truly a practical shot, how did they get all of those angles while hiding the cameras from each others’ views? Especially when the view “looking up” would have required a rig on a barge or something.

As for the view with the full frame of the jump - you don’t need a 4-story green screen to do this. You just move the superimposed green screen shot across the frame of the other shot.
