The Boys – Season 3 – MPC

Tuesday | 2022 09 27 |

The Boys are back and as diabolical as ever. As our first stint with the genius team over at Amazon we were stoked to work on some key scenes.

From arguably the most emotional scene in the series (RIP Timothy) to some extreme NSFW shots we couldn’t even include in our breakdown reel, this was a different project for many reasons!

Led by MPC VFX Supervisor, Charlie Bayliss and VFX Producer, Taylor Kennard, our teams worked closely with Production VFX Supervisor Stephan Fleet to achieve new levels of VFX to shock audiences far and wide. To see our other work on the show, you’ll have to watch it.

The Last Duel – MPC

Saturday | 2022 08 13 |

Visionary filmmaker and four-time Academy Award nominee Ridley Scott brings to audiences the tale of gripping betrayal and vengeance set against the brutality of 14th century France in, The Last Duel.

Technicolor Creative Studios Production Supervisors Gary Brozenich and Jessica Norman worked alongside MPC Film VFX Supervisor Sebastien Raets, VFX Producer Skye Radies and teams in London, Montreal, and Bangalore delivering over 180 shots, and with VFX Supervisor Yann Blondel, VFX Producer Kristina Prilukova and the Paris based team, delivering an additional 220 shots.

MPC Film’s artists crafted the visual effects of two sequences: the duel and the Limoges battle. The original brief did not require extensive crowd building, but as the pandemic determined new ways of working, it was essential for the team to adapt the visual effects requirements, and crowd simulation artists were required to simulate both full CG crowds and crowd extensions.
