make a combat scene for a big superhero movie is complicated . Making a engagement scene where the bomber are always shrinking and uprise is even more complicated .

In another entry inVanity Fair ’s excellent “ note on a Scene ” series , Peyton Reed opens up about the techniques used to intermix CGI and hot - action to make fights that make physics sense and look unbelievable at the same time .

This is fascinating stuff . The gargantuan salt shaker ? Not substantial , but there was some plexiglas that the hombre ran into to get the same event for frivol away . Tiny Wasp ? CGI , of course , but Evangeline Lily ’s face was shot in a camera array to superimpose on all of her CGI costumed actions . And there is , in general , a mess more practical work in these fights than I ’d have a bun in the oven . And Reed does a fantastic task of place it all out .
