Normally, when newspapers find out when they've written a false statement, they print a retraction.  This is kinda like that.

Last week I posted raving statements about ILM's superb work on Transformers.  It turns out, I was mistaken.  Not about the quality of the work done, of course.  About who did it.  After speaking to Professor Tan (my head of Visual Effects) about the movie and how I was overwhelmed by ILM's work on the robots, he surprised me.  "That's not ILM," he said.  "Those shots have Digital Domain written all over them."  After he said that, it made a lot of sense.  Digital Domain is notorious for highly photorealistic mechanical effects.  ILM, not so much.  What surprised me about this, though, is that if I remember correctly, ILM was credited first at the end.  Digital Domain was second, which generally means that ILM was the primary and DD was the secondary house.  I'm planning on seeing it again this weekend, when I'll be sure to take notes on who is credited for what.  (I'm that much of a geek)
