A shot is the sequence from one cut to the next. It may last a couple of frames or 15 minutes.Zorg said:I'm guessing they're counting individual CGI elements. So, in a shot with a CGI matte painting and some animated creature would count as two CGI shots.
It may contain just one digitally comped background, just actors, a close up of a prop or a hundred spaceships flying.
If this one shot contains any digital tampering whatsoever, it's a CGI shot.
Based on its budgeted length and complexity one woman or man or dozens work on it a couple of hours or 6 months.
Just my two cents, I hope they helped...
