After watching the video about the making of Jim Fiscus' "The Unfortunate Moment of Misunderstanding," I can appreciate how much work and planning actually goes into this type of photography. I had no idea that it took the collaboration of so many different people to make one photographer's vision a reality. I also had no idea how precise the whole process has to be, and how many steps are required. The effects that are accomplished with CG are incredible, and I would definitely like to know more about how it is done. With all of the work and people required, it makes me wonder whether this type of creative photography is financially sustainable. While there is certainly a commercial market for these types of photographs, I wonder whether the photographer would be able to make money on a creative series such as this one.
