A new video from the Moving Picture Company (MPC) showcases the digital effects created for Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures’ 2014 creature reboot.
MPC was the lead VFX studio bringing the iconic title creature to life in Godzilla, which opened worldwide 16 May, 2014. The team was led by MPC Vancouver VFX Supervisor Guillaume Rocheron (Academy Award winner for Life of Pi) and VFX Producer Philip Greenlow.
An epic rebirth to Toho’s iconic Godzilla, this spectacular adventure, from Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures, pits the world’s most famous monster against malevolent creatures who, bolstered by humanity’s scientific arrogance, threaten our very existence.
Gareth Edwards directed Godzilla, which starred Aaron Taylor-Johnson (“Kick-Ass”), Oscar nominee Ken Watanabe (“The Last Samurai,” “Inception”), Elizabeth Olsen (“Martha Marcy May Marlene”), Oscar winner Juliette Binoche (“The English Patient,” “Cosmopolis”), and Sally Hawkins (“Blue Jasmine”), with Oscar nominee David Strathairn (“Good Night, and Good Luck.,” “The Bourne Legacy”) and Bryan Cranston (“Argo,” TV’s “Breaking Bad”).
Godzilla was a monster-hit at the global box office this year, pulling in $525 million.
