As the main VFX company on the film, Method Melbourne completed 160+ shots. The scope of the work was expansive, says Hellier.
“There was a broad range of call-outs that included a lot of environment work, CG vehicles, explosions, blood enhancements, psychedelic footage treatments and our primary task of building and integrating the monolithic Spiderhead prison. A huge building of brutalist concrete design, the prison sits on an idyllic tropical peninsula, overhanging clear, blue waters: a stark contrast with its surroundings. The director’s desire was that it served as not only a location but a character.”
