Our team, under the supervision of Deak Ferrand, built the miniature ship and set it on fire while filming it; we also shot numerous elements like burning sails and masts, as well as we smoke and debris. These real elements were integrated into several scenes, with 3D elements including floating sails and water simulations, enabling us to obtain an incredible level of realism.
Our team also created spectacular matte paintings, amazing skies, as well as blood and wounds, mandatory for a pirate’s tale! In total, we delivered 90 shots for the 3rd season of the acclaimed STARZ’s series, about the adventures of Captain Flint and his crew.
