That ‘disappearing pencil’ scene in The Dark Knight,<\/em> starring Heath Ledger as the Joker, could have actually killed the stuntman.<\/p>\n

Recently, VFX supervisor Nick Davis came forward to give everyone the inside story regarding that scene. He said that in order to avoid unnecessary CGI scenes, the director Chris Nolan and everyone else thought it would be okay to use a sleight of hand (<\/em>…..and a boulder of a heart) rather than CG for the scene.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not particularly difficult to build a CG pencil and track it in and kinda make it disappear out…. [But] wherever possible, we tried not to do unnecessary visual effects shots.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Using CGI would have been easy, but then its things like these why we have amazing stories to tell afterwards.<\/p>\n
