VFX Breakdown Of Tim Burton's DARK SHADOWS
With the holidays approaching, a DVD of Tim Burton's Dark Shadows would surely be a great stocking stuffer... if you run out of coal. Yes, the film may not be a gem, but the visual effects were plenty good, come see the the magic of movies.
The Senate VFX was awarded a total of 186 shots for Dark Shadows, which covered a broad range of work on some major sequences including the Collinwood Manor Fire, Angel Bay Cannery Seq, Construction Site Attack and a large selection of Collinwood manor exterior shots. The Senate was tasked with completing full CG environments, set extensions, green screen comps and ghost FX work, which, coupled with meeting the demands of a visionary director, made Dark Shadows a challenging yet hugely rewarding project to be part of.
Dark Shadows was directed by Tim Burton and stars: Johnny Depp as Barnabas Collins, Eva Green as Angelique Bouchard, Bella Heathcote as Victoria Winters, Jackie Earle Haley as Willie Loomis, Helena Bonham Carter as Dr. Julia Hoffman, Michelle Pfeiffer as Elizabeth Collins Stoddard, Jonny Lee Miller as Roger Collins, Chloe Grace Moretz as Carolyn Stoddard, Gulliver McGrath as David Collins, and Christopher Lee as Silas Clarney.
