All about the 5 W’s: Who, What, Where, When, Why. The creative teams from top studios present on the creation of some of the most thrilling, dynamic films and television series to date.
Bond. James Bond.
James Bond is the longest-running film franchise and with No Time to Die it continues to be incredibly popular after 60 years. Bursting with action, car chases and colossal explosions No Time to Die is much more personal than ever before. Nominated for its stunning visual effects at VES, BAFTA’s and the Academy Awards, No Time to Die combines the very best in classic special effects and today’s CG effects.
Join us as our very special guests VFX Lead Supervisor Charles Noble and Production Special Effects Supervisor and Action Vehicle Supervisor Chris Carbould pull back the curtain and show us how they made the magic for Bond. Shaken not stirred.
