RE: They had this up at AICN
By GabrielCKoerner

Actually, sharing this profession, not as much time or thought usually goes into it. :)

I believe it could've very well been a Shatner homage but usually this stuff is just a matter of somebody saying, k, gotta bang out this city matte painting this week, let me just google image skylines, find ones with similar lighting, mash em together in a PSD, maybe plop on some 3d rendered blend layers, paint the overly-Earth look out of it, and voilla.

So the structures you mentioned are very, very likely to be just Google image search pics of Montreal photoshopped.

You have no idea how much shit that comes off Google Image Search for VFX. For a superbowl spot recently I was grabbing cloud and god ray pics off google and photoshopping em into nebulas. Its really the lazy production way of doing things :)
