If a film uses 90% CGI, what does this imply about its production style?

• A. The production relied mostly on practical effects.
• B. The production used little CGI.
• C. The production is entirely live-action with no CGI.
• D. The production is heavily CGI-dependent.

Answer: (D)

Using 90% CGI means the film relies far more on computer-generated imagery than practical effects. This indicates a production style that is heavily CGI-dependent, with most visuals—environments, creatures, and many effects—created digitally rather than captured in-camera. It often involves extensive green/blue screen work, motion capture, virtual production, and a big emphasis on post-production and visual effects teams.

This fits best because it describes a strong shift toward digital creation of imagery. It isn’t about using practical effects (that would imply physical, in-camera techniques), it isn’t about using little CGI, and it isn’t fully live-action with no CGI—those would contradict the heavy CGI usage implied by 90%.
