For this indie movie I did all the VFX, another studio was going to do them originally and they supervised, but they backed out in the end, the supervision was not good enough, but surprisingly enough, the effects I did ended up being almost undistinguishable, which I guess is a really good thing, in words of some of the Berlinale Jury and audience:
…we didn’t even know it had VFX…
The challenge was that all of the shots were really long, some of them were over a minute long; there were clouds, smoke, fire, background replacement, even facial replacement!
