下面是导演对于World Builder 特效制作简要介绍：

影片制作90%完成之后，我决定将片中所有虚拟环境——直到虚拟世界被激活之前的所有景象，全部蒙上“一层诡异、投射式的效果。在影像边缘所用到的效果叫做“色差”光晕，这就好比一台老旧的电视机显示红绿蓝错位的图像。因此在片中，你会看到一些泛红、蓝，还有特别绿的一些场景边缘。我个人比较喜欢这种效果，因为它更能凸显一种“虚拟感”，并与之后的真实环境作对比反衬。之前有些评论说，这部片子的绿幕抠像没做好，当然都是误解了。说实话，这部短片的制作工程非常繁杂，片中难免有种种合成、建模与抠像瑕疵。所以别太苛求我，毕竟真正的艺术品是永远达不到完美的境地的吧。

After the film was 90% done, I made the decision to make all of the builder's environments -- up to the moment the world breathes into life -- have a strange, projected look. One of the techniques used around the edges of the frame is called chromatic aberration. This is similar to having the red, green, and blue channels of an older projection screen tv misaligned.The effect is you see some blue, red and particularly, green halos toward the edges of the frame. I liked the look and think it provides just that bit of unreality to help contrast the more colorful, "live" moments later. Looking back, I can see how this reads as a bad greenscreen and might have altered or subdued the effect so it would not read this way. That being said,
the project was huge, and there ARE lots of compositing, modeling, surfacing and keying errors all over the place. Don't get me started. A piece of art is never finished, it is abandoned and sent out into the world to fend for itself. I guess I didn't have enough time to finish my world.


Bruce Branit 曾在2000年的时候和朋友Jeremy Hunt一起制作过一部3分钟动作短片《405》，两人只用了1辆Jeep、1台PC、几天的下班时间便为观众呈现3分钟惊险的‘飞机撞Jeep情景’。

很棒的短片，不过我还是喜欢平面的东西多些~
