Atonement

The story centres around fledgling writer Briony Tallis who, at 13 years old, irrevocably changes the course of several lives when she accuses her older sister’s lover of a crime he did not commit.

Led by Visual Effects Supervisor, John Moffatt, Visual Effects Producer, Stuart McAra and VFX co-Producer, Kristopher Wright, DNEG managed over 200 challenging visual effects shots for the film. These included crowd replication, underwater environment creation, explosions, planes, smoke, and beautification of buildings. One of the most challenging of these was a live-action shot on the beach at Dunkirk lasting 5 minutes and 27 seconds.
