It appears that upcoming 'Blade Runner 2049' won't be relying heavily on visual effects. While chatting with Variey the films' director, Denis Villeneuve revealed that has a strong aversion to relaying on post-production to fill in the blanks. The Oscar-nominated director commented, "?I?m very old school. I wish I had the chance to do my ?Aliens? [in Arrival) as animatronics. I hate green screens. It sucks out all my energy. I get depressed. [Cinematographer] Roger [Deakins] was insanely impressive in how he was able to create landscape with tricks. For me it was beautiful. I think I can count on one hand how many times I saw a green screen in all of those months of shooting. There will be CG enhancements, of course, but as much as possible it was in-camera.?
