Graphics?
The computer generated images that movies are able to produce now. In the case of the Odyssey, the Cyclops is a good example but all the DC Comics, Lord of the Rings all use it now. The definition I was referring to is :
"Graphics are visual images, designs, or computer-generated pictures used to inform, illustrate, or entertain. Key types include vector graphics, raster images, and 3D models."
In the Kirk Douglas version of the Odyssey, they had to fight skeletons with swords and it looked pretty fake.

Simple google:
“Christopher Nolan did not use computer graphics (CGI) for his film The Odyssey (2026 film), choosing instead to rely on practical effects, custom mechanical builds, and in-camera technique
- Cyclops: Built as a massive, fully mechanical 60-foot practical puppet operated on location inside a real cave rather than generated via computer graphics.
-The Fall of Troy: Shot entirely with zero green screens or digital crowds, utilizing a large-scale physical set, hand-built stone structures, and real performers.Transformations & Effects: Relied on custom physical prosthetics for character transformations instead of digital
