VES NY is excited to continue their new series, a dedicated forum for the region’s premier VFX vendors to showcase groundbreaking work and novel techniques. Q&A to follow, discussion is encouraged!
Join us for a behind-the-scenes look at the making of Dead City, as Sr. VFX Supervisor Alex Dreiblatt and Sr. VFX Producer Sarah McCulley break down the work that brought a post-apocalyptic New York to life.
From the large-scale digital recreation of iconic locations - including a haunting reimagining of Radio City Music Hall - to complex environment builds, extensions, and invisible VFX, the team will walk through the creative challenges and post ex*****on behind the work.
They’ll explore Dead City in depth, along with highlights from other recent projects, through detailed shot breakdowns and a discussion on collaboration and visual storytelling within high-volume episodic and feature post workflows.
