THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON
FEATURE FILM
VENDOR:  Hydraulx
CLIENT:  Paramount / Warner Bros.
VFX SUPERVISORS: Greg Strause / Erik Liles
ROLE:  Inferno / Flame Artist

My work on "Benjamin Button" focused primarily on the Paris sequence, where Daisy suffers her career-ending tragedy by being hit by dancing into an oncoming taxi.

In addition to combining A-B plates for the car's impact with Daisy, I enhanced a number of shots with matte paintings of dirty streets, period buildings, a re-positioned Eiffel Tower, and art-directed skies.

Also, I comped a few establishing shots of Murmansk, and did some clean-up work for Benjamin as a baby, removing a somewhat unconvincing mechanical infant from a blanket in Queenie's arms.

All work was done in Inferno and Flame.
