Enter the apocalyptic chaos of Elevation, where Digital Domain’s visual effects expertise brings the spine-chilling “Reapers” to life. These insect-like creatures at the center of the film’s haunting narrative are a masterclass in lifelike creature design. The team at Digital Domain painstakingly combined practical elements with cutting-edge CGI to bring to life the Reapers’ intricate anatomy and terrifyingly realistic movements.
One of the show-stoppers is the beautiful recreation of the Rocky Mountains where the climactic battle happens. The VFX team has done an incredible job in seamlessly combining real-world photography with digital landscapes that have been used to craft immersive environments to place viewers at the heart of action. From set pieces and explosive to the subtlety of atmospheric details, visuals enhance the story’s tension and scale.
With Elevation, Digital Domain once again reveals its unparalleled capacity to mix art and technology and, in so doing, has delivered a cinematic experience that lingers long after the credits roll.
