Visual Effects
NewTek recently had the opportunity to talk to Emile Edwin Smith, a Visual Effects Supervisor at Zoic Studios,about the work on Firefly and Serenity.
|
How did your team first become involved with Firefly/Serenity? How did your participation in the motion picture version then come about?
I first became involved with the property when it was called Firefly and the pilot for the initial TV show was about to start. I had read about the show and sent my portfolio to Joss Whedons company. He in turn forwarded my info to the VFX supervisor on the show, Loni Peristere and one Emmy and one VES award later we had a great partnership. Loni and I had continued to work on other projects both together and separately at his company since Firefly ended; we had been hearing that Joss wanted to do a movie for a while and I was itching to be involved. Joss wanted to have a lot of the same creative team that were involved in the television series involved in the movie since it was such a collaborative effort. We had to convince the head of visual effects at Universal, John Swallow, that we could do the job, and we did; we were ready to jump in and do some serious work!
