Benjamin Button was a collaboration of Paramount Pictures, Warner Bros., Digital Domain, Asylum FX, Matte World and Lola FX. When everybody put their heads together, what we got was the aged face of Brad Pitt on a tiny body that looked too good to be your standard digital manipulation.
Over at BenjaminButtonFX.com, there’s an extensive collection of videos that show just how they made Brad look so good. It’s pretty amazing how similar the end result is to Brad’s brow.
