Probably with the lighting and stuff it was cheaper and easier to just digitize it than it was to call for a reshoot.

Well, it’s not like they needed Driver for this. They could have just put any guy with a Kylo mask in front of the blue-screen, the fiddled with it digitally to save time. Making a Kylo 3D model seem like a waste of time to me, bu then again when you have a 200 mill. budget I guess you have to use all that money on something.

I’m sure they already had the Kylo model around for certain stunts and scenes anyway, likely 3D scanned from Driver in costume, even.

Not that I don’t agree, but damned if some of this stuff isn’t getting nearly seamless.

Yep. Also figure they wanted to keep the performance as Driver’s, not someone else (I know it might seem silly for a small shot but still). Not to mention with Gleeson in the shot they’d have to do some compositing anyway to put in a double.

Fact of the matter is, it’s practically impossible to tell that it’s digital, so I’m not sure who really cares.

I dunno: this CGI leia doesn’t seem to be integrated well, IMO:

I think that might have been a make up decision.

Or a cocaine decision she made when she was young…or maybe she’s part droid now.

Whenever Leia is on screen in TFA the camera seems out of focus, it’s really weird.

The camera is afraid of Carrie Fishy

They did use a softer lens for the stuff on the Resistance base (which is the only place you see Leia) so perhaps that has something to do with it?

Doubt any serious CG was used. It’s crazy that I see so many people think so. Honestly don’t get it. She’s old. So what? So’s Harrison.

I’m pretty sure Darth Ignominious was just making a shitty joke.

Most certainly but I’ve heard others say it too.
