AI-assisted VFX: 253 shots in one week for House of David S2, vs 10-12 weeks before
cuenca · x · 2026-09-21
- Wonder Project used Magnific to transfer the visual language of House of David Season 2 onto AI-generated footage, referencing actual production frames so it could cut alongside live action.
- The AI VFX team worked on set, testing models and refining backgrounds with directors during the shoot rather than weeks later in post.
- Result: 253 AI-assisted shots and environment builds in about one week — work that previously took 10–12 weeks.
- The poster argues the real value is keeping filmmakers in the creative loop, and that Hollywood was in crisis before AI; more producers like Jon Erwin are needed.
