DNEG’s VFX
When Wright approached Double Negative to help him realise the visual effects of the movie, DNEG’s VFX Supervisor, Frazer Churchill and his team, knew that the biggest challenges would be in keeping the spirit of the comic alive, making the graphics photographic and visualising the extremely stylised fight sequences, all of which were based in a hyper-real altered reality.
The visual effects employed in the film, covered a huge spectrum, including creating some of the film’s stylised exteriors and CG environments, comic book graphics, visualised music, and of course, the 7 fights, ranging from Kung Fu to skateboarding style (and everything in between), each of which escalated in spectacular intensity throughout the film and featured goodies such as Demon Hipster Chicks, Snow Dragons and a Sound Yetti, yes, a Sound Yetti!
