From the crafts
Perspectives
Director
Rodeo FX hat sich mit Game of Thrones und ähnlichen Projekten einen Namen gemacht. Ihre Expertise bei Environments und Kreaturen ermöglicht mir visuelle Welten, die praktisch nicht realisierbar wären.
Producer
Rodeo FX profitiert von kanadischen Steuervorteilen und bietet konkurrenzfähige Preise bei Hollywood-Qualität. Montreal ist ein wichtiger VFX-Hub, und Rodeo ist dort ein Top-Player.
