Tom Cruise and Christopher McQuarrie on the set of Mission: Impossible Dead Reckoning - Part One from Paramount Pictures and Skydance.

‘Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One’ at the VFX Notes podcast.

Hugo Guerra and Ian Failes are back with a new VFX-Oscar VFX Notes on Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One. And, yes, we deal with the curious marketing effort in that film, like so many others, where the CG and digital VFX were downplayed but clearly a huge (and very impressive) part of the movie. Check out the previous coverage of the film at befores & afters here.
