Here are my impressions of watching Ayalaan (on Sunnxt OTT platform). This is not a review of the movie. Just my observations of PhantomFX’s work:
- The company got predominant placing during the titles.
- There is no doubt the company did good work, with the leavage that this is done on a budget which is a fraction of Hollywood movie budget.
- The interaction between real and CG characters were near flawless.
- Though the expressions of CG character were good in most scenes especially critical scenes, at times there were blank expressions. Thankfully, these didn’t matter for the overall experience.
- Good planning with the director was visible for the execution of some difficult scenes.
- At times, the creativity of the work was commendable. I particularly liked wall graffiti graphics.
- The CG character’s lip movement for the dialogues was a critical aspect. This was reasonably good in most scenes.
It is clear that the team must have gained a lot of experience and confidence through this movie. It was a financially and strategically right decision to become co-producer in order to be able to have this released.
By the way, the movie overall is pretty average. The lovable tattoo character and the effort went into special effects make this watchable. Good collections at the box office is due to sheer lack of cinema content with the local flavor for children.
