5 Images Revealing How Filmmakers Finished Furious 7 Without Paul Walker
#3 Experts Used CGI As Well As Special Lighting & Camera Angles
After Paul’s brothers and “body doubles” finished acting out the remainder of his scenes in the film, special effects experts placed CGI images of Paul’s face over the top of theirs as well as using “carefully chosen camera angles and the right lighting” to make them look more like Paul Walker.
If you watch the film, you’ll notice that Paul’s scenes are a lot more limited in the second half of the film, in terms of shrouding him in darkness, a lack of close-ups, quick jumpy scenes and you may even notice a slight change in his voice and mannerisms.
