HBO - BIG LITTLE LIES

HBO’s Big Little Lies season two featured the introduction of Meryl Streep into a remarkable existing cast from season 1 including Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman, Zoë Kravitz, Laura Dern and Shailene Woodley. During post production scripting changed the direction of the narrative. As a result pick up shoots along with visual effects were leveraged to create compositions and scenes that were not captured during principle photography.

John Cameron served as Visual Effects Supervisor for the season and led Real by Fake’s studios in Montreal and Los Angeles through the technical visual effect shot compositions to help realize Jean-Marc Vallée’s vision for the updated season two story arc.

Leveraging green screen compositing, character morphing, character repositioning and scene stitching the performances were redirected to fit the new storyline and needed to be seamless to the viewers. Hundreds of technical shots were executed to complete the season in just several months.
