Crash Course

VFX Supervisor Mark Russell tasked Brigade with previsualizing the climactic helicopter scene; a five  minute shot by shot sequence culminating in a white-knuckled crash in the Andes mountains. Jovian served as lead to build, rig, animate and manage a team of previs artists to deliver a very useful part of production. DNEG then used our previs to build their amazing VFX sequence, ending up being the most intense sequence of the film.
