Instead of rebuilding cities like New York, Boston, Detroit, and Washington, D.C. like a CG dinosaur, Alexey Zakharov used a technique where he sliced up antique photos and then carefully animated the various elements, like people, cars, and buildings, to give the appearance of actual moving footage.
There’s still a dash of CG here and there to recreate elements like smoke, water, and weather, but the majority of this convincing faux footage started out as flat two-dimensional photographs.
