CALIFORNIA versus HOLLYWOOD EARTHQUAKES: Mechanical and Optical Special Effects


Live in California, you know Earthquakes, because it's San Andreas' Fault!

This is a look at four motion pictures that illustrate how the motion picture industry portrayed Earthquakes and destroyed San Francisco and Los Angeles through the different types of "Special Effects". I will also mention other films with similar type effects" to illustrate the overall technology.

In 1970 my wife and I had moved from North Hollywood, California, to Lubbock, Texas. I was working for the NBC affiliate KCBD, and became the "Reliable News Source " for the "Sylmar Earthquake" of that year. I countered the wire services over what damage had happen, if the Hanson Dam was completely breeched. The wire services had the entire San Fernando Valley under several feet of water with major damage. I told the news anchors that even if the dam was breeched, which I had doubted and the story was proved false only minutes after the AP sent it, the water level would not be as high as being reported, because of the distances involved.

On  on 
January 17, 1994, at 4:30 AM, the Monday celebrating the birthday of Martin Luther King, Jr., I was going to work crossing the interchange between the 5 and 14 freeways from the Santa Clarita Valley, that I lived in, to the Sean Fernando Valley, I worked in. When the "Northridge Earthquake" struck, I would learn later, had I turned around on the darken freeway to go home. I would have probably driven off a large missing section of freeway that cost the life of a California Highway Patrol Officer and not have been here to write this article.


The quake is still the highest ever recorded in an Urban Area of North America and the ground movement was felt in Las Vegas, Nevada, about 220 miles from the quake’s epicenter. 




Above, are two photos of the portion of the freeway I had crossed over in daylight. 

In any given year, but not necessary as devastating as the "Northridge Earthquake", an average of 100 to 150 Earthquakes occur in California. Which makes them a great subject for motion pictures about the "The Big One", which the 1994 quake was nowhere near prediction.

Special Effects Defined:

Special Effects are simply illusions or visual tricks to simulate imagined events in a motion picture, or today, gaming. Originally, and this will pertain to the first three motion pictures I am looking at, Special Effects were divided into two categories, "Mechanical Effects", and, "Optical Effects". Later, with the development of  "Computer-generated Imagery (CGI)", a third category was added.

In 1902, French illusionist-magician, actor, and film director George Melies, made and released in France, "Le Voyage dans la Lune (A Trip to the Moon)". His short film was based upon the Jules Verne novels, 1865's, "From the Earth to the Moon", and, 1970's, "Around the Moon", and "Optical Special Effects" were born.

Thirteen years later, in 1915, Stop Motion Animator Willis O'Brien, made the "Mechanical Special Effects" short film, "The Dinosaur and the Missing Link: A Prehistoric Tragedy".

In 1984, digital post-production coordinator Peggy Baker and her crew created the "Computer-generated Imagery" for the science fiction feature, "The Last Star Fighter". The first major studio production using the process. The following link takes my reader to a video about the CGI imagery.

I just want to mention the first movie about the San Francisco Earthquake, but there are only these two stills remaining from the 1913 short movie production.
































THE SHOCK released on June 10, 1923.

 


 


"Universal Pictures" publicity department played off of Lon Chaney's "The Man of a Thousand Faces" persona in the above poster. Irving Thalberg had just given him that name and later, the same year, his "Hunchback of Notre Dame" was to be released.

Lon portrayed "Wilse Dilling", and forgotten actress, Virginia Valli, portrayed "Gertrude Hadley".





 

 





















Above, Lon Chaney and Virginia Valli, and below, whom I believe is Japanese actor Togo Yamaoto, playing the "Chinese messenger", with Christine Mayo portraying "Queen Ann Cardington".


















The screenplay was by Charles Kenyon based upon a novel by William Dudley Pelley entitled "Pit of the Golden Dragon", and the picture was directed by Lambert Hillyer.

However, like the majority of Silent Films, those behind the technical aspects of "The Shock", the Earthquake sequence in particular, are apparently lost to motion picture history and are not listed anywhere.


The picture takes place in 1906 San Francisco and tells the story of "Wilse Dilling", a crippled gangster, who receives a message to go to the home of his boss, "Ann Cardington". "Dilling" is to go to the small town of Fallbrook, and await instructions of how he will deal with "Cardington's" former lover, the banker "Micha Hadey", played by William Welsh. However, "Wilse" meets the banker's daughter, "Gertrude", and awaiting his instructions, he falls in love with her. However, she is engaged to "Jack Cooper", played by Jack Mower, who between 1914 and 1965 portrayed over 600 roles.





















Above, Jack Mower, Lon Chaney, and Virginia Valli.


In typical melodrama formula, "Gertrude's father is blackmailed by "Queen Ann" and "Wilse" reveals his part in the scheme to him. An attempt to blow up the bank goes wrong and "Gertrude" is badly injured and may end up like "Wilse". As a result, "Jack's" father has him call of the engagement so that he will not be married to a cripple.

"The Shock" comes to a climax, during the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake, with everyone caught up in its events. In the end, Lon Chaney gets the girl, who had recovered completely, as "Wilse Dilling" leaves his life of crime and is able to walk without his crutches.


The Earthquake is a combination of actual footage from the 1906 quake and models and movie sets.

The following are stills from the actual Earthquake, use them to compare to the recreated scenes in the next movie.

The Hollywood Studio system, routinely, still did not give recognition to most technical fields through the 1930's. For example, neither Willis O'Brien, or Marcel Delgado, received official credit for the "Mechanical Effects (Stop Motion Animation)", for both 1933's, "King Kong", and, Son of Kong". Both men did get credit, under the heading, "Additional Crew", Willis O'Brien as "Chief Technician", and model maker Marcel Delgado as "Technical Staff". Nor, would anyone know that father and son, Harry Redmond, Sr., and Junior, did all the other "Special Effects" in the two classics.

 Two years later, the same men, getting the same credit, or lack of, along with Vernon K. Walker, uncredited "Optical Photo Effects", worked on 1935's, "The Last Days of Pompeii", creating the destruction of the Roman city by "Mount Vesuvius". The 1935 motion picture is part of my article, "Pompeii Destroyed: Motion Pictures vs Reality", that can be read at:


http://www.bewaretheblog.com/2018/10/pompeii-destroyed-motion-pictures-vs.html

 

 Thirteen years after "The Shock", "Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM)" returned to the 1906 Earthquake.



SAN FRANCISCO released on June 26, 1936.





"MGM" went big with this feature with two of their main stars, Clark Gable and Jeanette MacDonald, and one up and coming, Spencer Tracy. 

The motion picture was directed by W.S. Van Dyke. Among Van Dyke's films are, 1934's, "Manhattan Meldodrama", starring Clark Gable, and pre-"Thin Man" series. William Powell and Myrna Loy. The motion picture's claim to fame, was after watching the movie, gangster John Dillinger walked out of the theater, and was killed by the FBI. Van Dyke also made the Jeanette MacDonald and Nelson Eddy operetta, 1936's, "Rose-Marie", and, 1938's, "Marie Antoinette", starring Norma Shearer, Tyrone Power, and John Barrymore.


One of three second unit directors was uncredited, D.W. Griffith.

The story was by Robert E. Hopkins, and Anita Loos wrote the screenplay. Uncredited was Herman J. Mankiewicz, who co-wrote Orson Welles', 1941, "Citizen Kane", and wrote the screenplay for 1942's, "The Pride of the Yankees", that starred Gary Cooper as Lou Gehig.

Clark Gable portrayed "Blackie Norton". He had just been seen in 1936's, "Wife vs. Secretary", co-starring with Jean Harlow and Myrna Loy. Gable would follow this picture with the musical comedy, 1936's, "Cain and Mabel", co-starring with William Randolph Hearst's mistress, Marion Davies.



 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


 









Jeanette MacDonald portrayed "Mary Blake". She had just been in the previously mentioned, 1936, "Rose-Marie", and would follow this film with, 1937's, "Maytime", once again with her operetta co-star, Nelson Eddy.


 

 












For film buffs, if the gown looks farmiliar, it would be worn by "Glenda, the Good Witch", three years later, in "The Wizard of Oz".

MacDonald's character is that of a singer, and throughout the movie she reprises the title song, "San Francisco". Which was especially written for the picture, and composed by Bronislaw Kaper and Walter Jurmann with lyrics by Gus Kahn.

Spencer Tracy portrayed "Catholic Father Tim Mullin". Tracy had just just co-starred with Sylvia Sidney, in director Fritz Lang's, 1936, "Fury", the classic film about mob violence against a wrongly accused man. He would follow this feature with fourth billing, in 1936's, "Libeled Lady", that starred Jean Harlow, William Powell and Myna Loy.


 

 

 













Jack Holt portrayed "Jack Burley". Holt was a leading man during the silent era and became associated as the villain in many "B" Westerns. Holt portrayed "The Commodore", in producer Val Lewton's classic horror film, 1942's, "Cat People", directed by Jacques Tourneur.



















Left to right, Clark Gable, Jack Holt, Spencer Tracy and Jeanette MacDonald.

 

The story starts out on New Year’s Eve, as everyone in the city brings in 1906. On the Barbary Coast is the "Paradise Club", a saloon and gambling house owned by "Blackie Norton". He hires impoverished singer "Mary Blake" and she becomes the attraction for even upper-class San Franciscans. However, although "Blackie" might not be aware that "Mary" is a classically trained singer. His piano player, "The Professor", played by Al Shean, believes "Mary Blake" is not long for the "Paradise Club".

"Blackie" has a childhood friend in "Father Tim Mullin", who has made many attempts to reform him, and this becomes a secondary plot line. By this point, "Blackie" has developed feelings for "Mary", but she is offered and accepts a singing position at the "Tivoli Opera House" on Market Street. There she meets "Nob Hill scion" "Jack Burley". 

This will lead to the obvious conflict between "Norton" and "Burley" over "Mary", but at 5:13 AM, on, April 18, 1906, everything will be settled, as the San Francisco Earthquake strikes the city.

The motion picture ends with the survivors walking through the rubble and singing "The Battle Hymn of the Republic", to show the spirit they have to rebuild their city, followed by a short reprise of "San Francisco", showing a montage of the new city in 1936.

 

The Earthquake Sequence:

 For the San Francisco Earthquake sequences, only John Hoffman received credit under a somewhat strange sounding heading, "Editorial Department". In actuality, Hoffman was a film editor who specialized in "Montage Sequences", that by definition falls under the "Editorial Department"


https://imdb.fandom.com/wiki/Editorial_Department#:~:text=Editorial%20Department%20is%20a%20Department,on%20the%20IMDb%20update%20page.



Hoffman was also an uncredited Second Unit Director overseeing the Earthquake effects. He won the "Photoplay Magazine", "Medal of Honor", for his work on "San Francisco".

Also, under the heading of "Editorial Department", was the uncredited Slavko Vorkapich for the "Montage Sequences: Earthquake".

 Additionally, without credit were:

Russell A. Cully for "Special Effects: Earthquake Sequence".
Loyal Griggs for "Camera and Electrical Department: Photographer Earthquake sequence".

Other "Special Effects" were by the uncredited A. Arnold Gillespie and James Basevi.

"Visual Effects" were by Max Fabian 

 

The following are stills from the "Earthquake Sequence", no real 1906 film footage was used, this is all models and backlot sets. 



































The following link takes my reader to the actual ending of what some refer to as the "First Disaster Motion Picture".

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6eMyGPPnGb8








1937, saw director John Ford provide audiences with "The Hurricane". "Hurricane and Special Effects Staged" by James Basevi and "Hurricane and Special Effects Assisted by" R.T. Layton. 

1940, saw a similar story in "Typhoon", with "Special Photographic Effects" by Gordon Jennings and uncredited, "Optical cinematography", by Paul K. Lerpe. 

1953, had a "Fair Wind to Java", giving audiences the destructions of the volcanic island "Krakatoa". The 'Special Effects" by the Lydecker brothers, Howard and Theodore. They were assisted by the uncredited Norman O'Skeete.

My article about the actual facts and impact of the destruction of "Krakatoa" on the entire World, "Krakatoa: 'West' Not East of Java: The 1883 Destruction of the Island and the Two Hollywood Motion Pictures" is available for reading at:

http://www.bewaretheblog.com/2017/12/krakatoa-west-not-east-of-java-1883.html


On December 23 1973, the Japanese studio, "Toho", released in Japan, "日本沈没Nihon Chinbotsu (Submersion of Japan)". In the plot, a Japanese geophysicist discovers that the entire island of Japan is sinking into the "Japan Trench". There will be Earthquakes and a massive Tidal Wave. The film's excellent "Special Effects" are by Teruyoshi Nakano and Eiichi Asada. 

My readers should see the original, 1973, Japanese version, and not the re-edited, 1975, American version, from executive producer Roger Corman, entitled "Tidal Wave". That has scenes of Loren Greene and other added American actors at a shorter running time even with the new footage.


The following link is to the original Japanese trailer:

After Toho submerged the entire island of Japan, Hollywood returned to the destruction of the City of Los Angeles in:


EARTHQUAKE released on November 15, 1974.





This was an All-Star disaster motion picture from "Universal International Pictures" again.

I saw it the first weekend the feature played in Los Angeles, at the still, at the time, original format, "Grauman's Chinese Theater", in Hollywood. When I walked into the theater to take my seat, above the entire seating area was hanging a heavy rope net to catch the falling debris from the Earthquake. There was a method to that stunt, because:

"Earthquake" was in "Sensurround"! When the title event takes place, between the noise level and the vibrations of the special speakers, you felt like it was really happening. The following is the technical description of this sound system:

The Sensurround Control Tones were recorded on Tracks 2 and 4 and are 100 Hz instead of 25 Hz and 35 Hz. This was because the magnetic system could not reproduce the very low-frequency control tones reliably. The 100 Hz tone on Track-2 controls the program effects applied to the Sensurround Horns and the 100 Hz tone on Track-4 controls the rumble effect applied to the Sensurround horns. Like the other systems, the level of the 100 Hz tones varies the levels applied to the Sensurround horns and when both control tones are present, the Step/Hi-Gain function is turned on to increase the dynamic range of the main program by 8 dB. Track-3 (Center Front) is applied to the Sensurround system for program sounds. No other signal is recorded on Tracks 2 and 4.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensurround 

 

The motion picture was directed by Mark Robson. Robson directed producer Val Lewton's 1943, "The Seventh Victim", which predates "Rosemary's Baby" with a story about "Satan Worshipers" in Greenwich Village, 1943's, "Ghost Ship", the two Boris Karloff classics, my favorite low-keyed horror movie, 1945's, "Isle of the Dead", and, 1946's, "Bedlam".

The two screenplay writers were Mario Puzo, who had written the novel "The Godfather", in 1969, and the screenplay for the 1972 motion picture version, and George Fox, this was his only screenplay.

Apparently, what was seen on the screen was not the original draft from Puzo, with detailed characters and plot lines, because it would have cost "Universal International Pictures" a large budget they did not want to spend. So, Fox was brought in to turn Mario Puzo's screenplay into a more acceptable budgeted motion picture. That budget is estimated to have been $7 million, 1974 dollars, and the initial Worldwide box office was estimated at $79 million , 1974-1975, dollars. 


The cast had eleven major stars of the period, that included a cameo by Walter Matthau as a drunk in a bar. 











I am only speaking to the six named in large font on the above poster.

Charlton Heston portrayed Architect "Stewart Graff". British director Richard Lester had made a very long version of Alexander Dumas' "The Three Musketeers", and divided it into two film releases. Heston was back as "Cardinal Richelieu" in the 1974, second part release, "The Four Musketeers", just prior to this picture's release. He would follow this feature, co-starring with James Coburn in the 1976 Western, "The Last Hard Men".






Ava Gardner portrayed "Remy Royce-Graff". The alcoholic, sleeping pill popping jealous wife of "Stewart Graff". Gardner had just portrayed "Lily Langtry" in director John Huston's,1972, "The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean", starring Paul Newman. She followed this feature with the Austria and United Kingdom co-production spy story, 1975's, "The Executioner". 

 


 

 

 


















George Kennedy portrayed Los Angeles Police Officer "Lou Slade". Kennedy would be associated with disaster movies of the 1970's. He was in 1970's, "Airport", with Burt Lancaster, 1974's, "Airport 1975", and immediately before this picture with Charlton Heston. In 1977, it was "Airport 1977", and two years later, it was "The Concorde...Airport 1979", talk about type casting as the recurring character of "Joe Patroni". Kennedy starred in the third "Magnificent Seven" movie, 1969's, "The Guns of the Magnificent Seven", and had his own television series from 1971 through 1972, "Sarge", as "Father Samuel 'Sarge' Cavanaugh", a ex-Police Sergeant turned Priest.













Above, George Kennedy with Marjoe Gortner as psychotic National Guardsman, "Jody Joad".

Lorne Greene portrayed "Stewart Graff's" father-in-law "Sam Royce", owner of the Architectural Firm he works for. Greene had just finished his 1973 through 1974 television series, "Griff", and would follow this picture with a 1975 made-for-television remake of the Steve McQueen, 1966 movie, "Nevada Smith". 



 

 








Genevoeve Bujold portrayed "Stewart Griff's" girlfriend, "Denise Marshall". Bujold had just been in the Canadian motion picture. 1973's, "Kamouraska", with Richard Jordon, and would follow this film with the French motion picture, 1975's, "Incorrigible", with Jean-Paul Belmondo.

 


 

 

 







Richard Roundtree portrayed daredevil stuntman "Miles Quade". Roundtree has just completed the 1973 through 1974 television series "Shaft". He would follow it with a version of Daniel Defoe's "Robinson Crusoe", entitled "Friday", co-starring with Peter O'Toole.

 


 

 

Above Gabriel Dell as "Sal Amci", Victoria Principal as "Rosa Amci", "Sal's" sister,  and Richard Roundtree.

 

What happened to Mario Puzo's screenplay by Fox and the studio is a shame. What's left are two groups of uninteresting people attempting to survive a 9.9 Earthquake in Los Angeles. We know Puzo's screenplay covered areas outside of Los Angeles with deeper characters, but that was all cut out. 

There is a theme about predicting Earthquakes, that sees scientist "Dr. Frank Adams", played by Bob Cunningham, planting recording devices in a trench he dug along the San Andreas Fault. While he's at the trenches bottom, a tremor causes a cave in, burying "Adams" and his assistant without anyone knowing they had ever been there. 

While, the main plot line has "Stewart Graff" coping with his wife, who keeps overdosing to get his attention, and a father-in-law that doesn't want to lose a cash-cow in "Graff". While, "Stewart" is in love with "Denise", and looks for a way out of his marriage. 

Then there's "Miles", whose manager, "Sal", has set up a motorcycle track that has a wheel in the middle, for the stunt man to gain publicity for his act. "Rosa" becomes the target of psycho "Jody Joad", after she buys groceries at the market he works at, and it's up to "Police Officer Lou Slade" to save her and perhaps fall for her in the process.

All of this is happening as Los Angeles is shaking, and perhaps that was the intention of the studio to focus of the Earthquake's destruction rather than the people experienceing it..

The Earthquake Sequence:

Even though "Earthquake" was made Fifty-one-years after "The Shock", "Special Effects" were still using models and sets.

Frank Brendel is credited for the "Special Effects". However, Mike Reedy was uncredited as  the "Special Effects Technician". Also uncredited for "Special Effects", are, Johnny Borgese, Ted Koerner, Jack McMaster, and, Glen Robinson.

"Visual Effects" had four of the fives names credited. These included, Roswell A. Hoffman (Ross Hoffman) for "Matte Photography", Glen Robinson for "Miniatures", Clifford Stine for "Special Photography", and Albert Whitlock for "Special Photographic Effects". The one uncredited, Cleo E. Baker, for "Miniatures".

 


 

 





















































Even with the success of 1984's, Computer Generated Imagery's, "The Last Starfighter", it still would be another thirty-one-years later. Before Hollywood took on the destruction of Los Angeles and this time combined it with the destruction of San Francisco.

SAN ANDREAS premiered in Los Angeles on May 27, 2015.

 




 


"Earthquake" had "Sensurround", and "San Andreas" had "Real 3-D". Which is a stereoscoptic projection technologyunlike the 3-D of my youth with images flying off the screen into your face, that creates a feeling of reality and the audience believing they're actually in the scenes.

Speaking to the 3-D movies of my youth and the history of Third-Dimension, my article, "Third Dimension the Golden Age of 3-D Motion Pictures 1952-1955", will be read at:

http://www.bewaretheblog.com/2015/08/third-dimension-golden-age-of-3-d.html


The motion picture was directed by Brad Peyton. Canadian Peyton started out directing shorts and Canadian television, in 2010, he directed "Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore", if I have to explain the title, you're not a "James Bond" fan. Two years later, it was the "Real 3-D", "Journey 2: The Mysterious Island", starring Dwayne Johnson and Michael Caine. Just before this feature, Peyton directed the horror entry, "Incarnate", starring Aaron Eckhart.

The story was co-created by Andre Fabrizio and Jeremey Passmore. Fabrizio wrote the screenplay for 2014's, "The Prince", starring Jason Patric, Bruce Willis and John Cusack. Passmore wrote the screenplay for the 2012 remake of "Red Dawn".

The actual screenplay was written by Carlton Cuse, Cuse was an action television writer, "The Adventures of Briscoe County, Jr.", "Nash Bridges", and "Lost", for example. Although he wrote three made-for-television movies, this was Carlton Cuse's first feature film screenplay.

The motion picture was filmed mainly in Queensland, Australia, with establishment shots in and around Los Angles, Bakersfield and San Francisco, California.


Dwayne Johnson portrayed "Raymond 'Ray' Gaines". Johnson aka: Wrestling's "The Rock", had just been seen in 2015's, "Furious 7", and followed this picture with 2015's, "Jem and the Holograms".

 













Carla Gugino portrayed "Emma Gaines". If you're a fan of director Robert Rodriguez, you may recognize Carla Gugino as the mother in his "Spy Kids" series. You may also remember her as "Dr. Gina Simon" on televisions "Chicago Hope", or as "Karen Sisco" in her short-lived series of that name. Her other roles include, "Dr. Alex Friedman", when she co-starred with Dwayne Johnson in the Walt Disney Company's, 2009, "Race to Witch Mountain", or perhaps it was "Abby Rhodes", in the television series "Californication", starring David Duchovny?

 

















Alexandra Daddario portrayed "Blake Gaines". Daddario started out with forty-three episodes of the day time soap opera, "All My Children". She portrayed "Annabeth" in 2010's, "Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightening Thief", reprised her role in, 2013's, "Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters", while appearing in roles of several television series.

Hugo Johnstone-Burt portrayed "Ben Taylor". Scottish-Australian actor Johnstone-Burt had appeared in several Australian television programs prior to this motion picture, and returned to Australian television afterwards.

Art Parkinson portrayed "Ollie Taylor". Irish actor Parkinson during the filming and release of this motion picture, was appearing as "Rickon Stark", on the series, "Game of Thrones".

The first difference between 1974's, "Earthquake" and 2015's, "San Andreas", is the reality of the characters and their relationships. While not stopping the high action pace of the story, the screenplay develops who these five people are, making the audience care about them.

Yet, in many ways it's almost the same story. The screenplay starts with a rescue of a young woman, whose car went off a cliffside road in the San Fernando Valley outside of Los Angeles, and introduces Rescue Helicopter Pilot, "Ray Gaines". Next, the scene switches to "Cal-Tech" and the audience meets seismologist "Dr. Lawrence Hayes", played by American actor Paul Gianatti, teaching a class and giving the audience the background for a possible nine, or larger overdue Earthquake in California.

Next, "Ray" discovers he is in the middle of a divorce proceedings. He has not been the same after the loss of one daughter on a rafting trip, and this had affected his marriage, but, "Ray" still loves his other daughter, "Blake", and still loves his soon to be ex-wife, "Emma". "Emma" is moving in with her boyfriend, "Architect Daniel Riddick", played by Welsh actor Ioan Gruffudd. He will take "Blake", on his private jet, to San Francisco, which sets up the sequences there.

"Dr. Hayes" and his assistant, "Dr. Kim Park", played by American actor and martial artist, Will Yun Lee, go to Hoover Dam, located between Arizona and Nevada, to test their Earthquake prediction system. In San Francisco, "Blake", waiting in the lobby of "The Riddick Building" for "Daniel" to finish a meeting, meets two English brothers who have  come to the United States."Ben" is there to be intereviewed for a position in "Riddick's" company. "Ollie" is there,  because he has to be with his older brother.

While, "Emma" goes to a lunch date with "Susan Riddick", played by Australian singer Kylie Minogue, "Daniel's" snobbish sister.

Then, the initial Earthquake, of a 7.1 magnitude, hits and destroys Hoover Dam and kills "Dr. Park". "Hayes" goes back to Cal-Tech and predicts that the quake, on an unknown fault, is a precursor to the big one. Caused by the new fault joining the San Andreas, and moving from Nevada, to Los Angeles, and up through California to San Francisco. "Dr. Hayes" tells those with him at Cal-Tech that: 















What follows, starts as a 9.1 magnitude quake hitting Los Angeles, and becomes a larger one, hitting San Francisco, afterwards. 

"Riddick", in shock, deserts "Blake", who is trapped in his limousine in the basement garage of his building. The two brothers rescue her and "Ben" and "Blake" come together, as they follow her father’s instructions to reach a rescue point. Meanwhile, "Ray", has rescued "Emma", from the roof top of the damaged building "Susan" and others have died in. The two come back together, as "Ray" confronts the loss of their other daughter for the first time, and they go to save "Blake". 


The following is taken directly from the IMDb website about "San Andreas". It  shows both the recognition of those involved with both "Special Effects" and "Visual Effects". Along with how many people were needed to create the 2015, "Computer Generated Imagery (CGI)" for Andreas".

 There are only two names without credit, out of thirty-five, under "Special Effects". 

There are 983 credited names and fifty-four uncredited names under "Visual Effects".
