Here’s What ‘World War Z’ Really Looks Like Without Visual Effects


6. The Plane Destruction

One of the most action-packed scenes involves a plane crash. This scene was filmed inside a section of a plane, and green screens were set up outside of the windows. A few extras were inside the cabin, as well as Pitt who was instructed to throw a grenade before the plane “crashed into trees.”

Visual effects artists created the explosion, vapor, and debris using computer graphics, and the scene of the zombies getting sucked outside of the gaping hole in the aircraft was computer generated, as well. Mountains, trees, and the sky were then added outside of the windows by the company MPC.
