on the blue ray dvd of pixar's finding dory, closely examine the sand and water (ignore the living creatures) in the first few minutes of the short film piper. you know a-priori it's not real, but i'd like to hear people describe what they think looks off with the environments (not the creatures). try to normalize that with the intent of a director trying to craft an identical ambiance from a recorded video (color temperatures may be made warmer in post, increased saturation, more vignetting, etc).
in particular, i don't think people watching that night-time sequence of deepwater horizon in theaters would identify it as entirely computer generated.

in big hollywood vfx house showreels, there's a lot that's obviously cg (again, we're still off on creatures), but what about the environments within? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnfdpgDDLc8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SabPuZ5coKk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_i0XuA9KLEo
