The Hidden VFX Behind Green Book (You Didn’t Notice This)
Monday, 20 April, 2026
In this episode of the Fable House Podcast, we sit down with visual effects supervisor Ray McIntyre Jr. of Pixel Magic to break down the behind-the-scenes VFX work on Green Book. From transforming stock footage into a fully believable bridge sequence to executing seamless face replacements, Ray shares how practical, “old-school” techniques still play a powerful role in modern filmmaking. We also dive into how Mahershala Ali’s piano performance was crafted on screen, the collaboration between actors and VFX teams, and why sometimes the simplest solutions create the most convincing results. If you're into filmmaking, visual effects, or behind-the-scenes movie magic, this is a must-watch. 🔔 Subscribe for more in-depth conversations with filmmakers, musicians, and creatives.
