If you look at Iron Man's first suit, the Mark 1, and compare it to the hero's nanotech suit from "Avengers: Infinity War" and "Avengers: Endgame," a lot has changed, but it's not just the technology in the world of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Animation tech has also evolved in the real world to make this suit possible on the big screen. We spoke with some of the VFX artists who worked on Iron Man’s suit over the past 11 years including Industrial Light & Magic, Weta Digital, Cinesite/Trixter, The Embassy, and Framestore to find out what challenges they faced along the way and how they were able to make the suit look so real.

Was it more realistic in its animation, or simply more realistic in its feasibility in our world...hmm i personally think the nano tech suit is as realistic as you could make a nano tech suit, it's just that the possibility of that liquid metal type of material is so far out of our reach, it makes it seem fake when really, from a design and animation standpoint, it's spot on as perfect as it could be :/

I had a subscription to Iron Man and Avengers comics in the 80's. Tony Stark's personality in the comics was always a bit flat. RDJ and John Favreau take all of the credit for making Tony Stark a fascinating and likeable character.

@poweroffriendship2.0 3 жыл бұрын

@@cajunboy67 Sure it's a bit flat but there are times that are interesting about comic Tony Stark such as dealing with alcoholism. So that being said, the comic DID reflected on RDJ's dealing with alcoholism and that's why the Iron Man trilogy mentioned his habit a few times. Also, it was used to be distributed by Paramount, not Disney, which it make sense why the movie was different compare to some several MCU movies which it's full of dirty humor and adult themes. Plus terrorism.

Pretty sure it’s because he was wearing Nanotech armor, it’s supposed to be tighter looking opposed to it being bulkier. I’m guessing that they were going for a sleeker design? Since Tony has been Iron-Man for so long, he’d have to find and make new materials for better more powerful suits.

it's remarkable that ILM only started using image-based lighting techniques in 2009. I remember reading papers about image-based lighting and light probes as early as 2003, and those were in a realtime context. Then I remember that it takes a number of years for that sort of thing to go from concept to production, and 2009 sounds about right.

I think the suits peaked at the Mark III, with a honorable mention of the suitcase suit from Iron Man 2. As a kid, I always liked how he carried the suit in his briefcase, because that's where you keep your business items, and being Iron Man was his business. I was surprised, seeing Iron Man 3, where he walks up to the suit and steps into it. You'd think he could have a model that was folded into quarters, and when he wanted it, it would unfold as he approached and allow him to step into it.

But they are logical. They had to show advancement in technology. Nanotech is only end goal that makes sense. While it may not look the best, from Tony's perspective it makes sense. EDIT: Also, i wouldn't say CGI Devolved. It just became less and less what could be possible in our world.

@JL-ps9vn 3 жыл бұрын

Let's face it, the CGI on his suit got better over time. The reason why people prefer his older suits is because it's more realistic and has more of an impact on screen. Since IM1's MKII suit, all of it is basically CG. If his newer suits ever seemed sloppy in IW and EG, it's probably due to budget cuts from having so many big name actors on the same screen.

@AnshumanKumar007 3 жыл бұрын

Yeah Thanos got the majority effort, obviously. Pretty much every time he was on the screen, he looked just great. Hulk in Endgame was also quite expressive. However, the rest of the stuff, they did background blurs to prevent anyone from noticing like with Titan in IW. Everything in Titan is purposefully blurred to prevent people from noticing imperfections and also give the artsy background defocus.

I personally didn't like Tony's Nano suit, as being a bit too unrealistic. The other suits seemed almost as if it could exist in the real world, especially Mark 1. But Mark 50 & 85 were a bit far-fetched compared to it's progression thus far, possibly from the overly excessive use of CG in these last 2 Avenger films

Having seen the suit in all its iterations throughout this movie series, I gotta say the effects for the first Iron Man film still impress me just that much more because there was a blend of a real practical suit with a fully CGI suit. Because of this your mind could never truly pick up where one is being used and the other is not. It also seems to me that having the practical suit used in the film challenged the digital artists to make their animated version not only match the practical suit but also meld convincingly with the live background that the practical suit was shot in (as opposed to generating a virtual set). Just my thoughts of course.
