I know very little about the post process in video, so these things are fascinating to me. There’s probably a lot more work going into making real-life looking graphics as opposed to the work involved with creating things like futuristic tech. You can fudge things a bit with things that don’t really exist, but if you’re recreating a real world scene, it’ll be obvious that you get it wrong.
The studio, Main Road, has another effects breakdown video that’s a mix of aliens and tech, alongside a realistic ship crash through a city.

I didn’t watch Stalingrad, but I did watch Attraction. Thought it was fascinating and very well done.
Paradoxically, the Attraction was more realistic. The Stalingrad was good but there were parts were the drama might take the viewer out of the realism.
