Alice in Wonderland (The Green Carpet)


Alice in Wonderland is the most technologically complex of their adventures together.  Alice in Wonderland isn't just a special effects, From talking roses to wild & completely CG characters, Alice in Wonderland is an Nice adventure that transports you to a new world so and it's hard to say goodbye to it when it all wraps up. 

Using a mixture of visual effects techniques, including actors shot against green screen, all CGI characters, as well as 3D, “ALICE IN WONDERLAND” vision in a unique way. Ken Ralston, senior visual effects supervisor on the film, says it was a challenge deciding how to tackle the director’s vision. “I think the film provides a very exciting experience in the 3D thing that’s happening within these weird worlds. 

While the live-action sequences involving Alice in the real world that bookend the film were shot on location in Cornwell in England, all the scenes that take place in Underland itself were shot on green-screen stages at Culver City Studios in Los Angeles which makes much more fun and unique.”

Forget about Walt Disney's cartoon Alice character with the innocent personality, bright yellow hair, and baby blue colored dress.. This production is filled with imagination from start to finish. Not only visually but also in the story. Burton made a smart move by not giving us the same plot as we've already seen. Here, Alice is older and is about to get married. Also, she ends up in Wonderland for the second time or in this case. The script is a little fresher than other remakes. Visually, the movie is amazing. The land's environment looks like something straight out of Candyland and the film's setting is glamorized in Hollywood special-effects having 90% of it be in green screen. The movie starts to drag  a bit and takes too much advantage and too much time with the effects.  Try to see it in 3D, it’s very cool!
