Page "Stunt" Paragraph 18

In the late 20th century stunt men were placed in dangerous situations less and less as filmmakers turned to relatively inexpensive ( and much safer ) computer graphics effects using harnesses, fans, blue-or green screens, and a huge array of other devices and digital effects.

The Matrix ( 1999 ) is an example for a film that extensively " enhanced " real stunts through CGI post production.

The Lord of the Rings film series and the Star Wars prequel films often display stunts that are entirely computer generated.
