'The Swarm' Working with Frank Doelger and MPCVFX as VFX Supervisor.
For The Swarm, MPC delivered 735 shots featuring the Yrr creature, CG Humpback and Killer whales, fish and crab swarms, water simulations, the Thorvaldson research vessel, underwater vehicles, a full CG seabed, and a Murray Cove set extension. The Yrr posed the greatest challenge, with its intricate and otherworldly design. Visualised as sea-dwelling microbes, these organisms form a massive bioluminescent superorganism. While individually resembling simple amoeba-like cells, together they become a tentacled entity capable of swimming and manipulating objects.
