Adam Savage Looks at the Creature Effects of ALIEN: COVENANT

In the latest episode of Tested, former MythBuster Adam Savage looks at the creature and special effects of Ridley Scott's upcoming prequel/sequel (in-between-quel?), Alien: Covenant. 20th Century Fox (who sponsored Savage's video, by the way) clearly wants audiences to go into this film expecting there to be a ton of real, practical effects, and while there certainly are, I was sad to see that the aliens (xenomorphs, neomorphs, etc) didn't have as much of a practical feel as I'd been led to believe. I'm just saying: take this video with a grain of salt because you may not feel this level of TLC for the practical effects when you see the final movie.

Adam Savage explores the massive built sets of Alien: Covenant and chats with visual effects supervisor Neil Corbould about the resurgence of practical effects to complement cg effectrs in blockbuster filmmaking. Adam also gets up close with some familiar Alien universe props in the creature fabrication workshop!
