From Spaced to his latest film Last Night in Soho, Wright breaks down his favorite visual tricks from his filmmaking career.
There is something joyful about watching a film by Edgar Wright. The practical effects blended with clever editing can make moments in film that feel real yet slightly impossible.
Many of Wright’s films draw inspiration from films and music that he loves, and how he incorporates those elements into his films is a masterclass at how to pay homage to pop culture. Wright sat down with Variety and broke down some of his favorite scenes from his career as a filmmaker, and how the mix of practical and digital effects made these stunts possible.
