From Westworld Director Jonathan Nolan comes Fallout, the series adaptation of Bethesda’s acclaimed game franchise. Featuring the franchise's signature retro-futuristic aesthetic and maintaining its twisted sense of humour, the TV adaptation for Prime Video presents an entirely new story set in Fallout’s surreal universe.
Fallout is streaming Amazon Prime from 12th April.
Framestore provided a comprehensive range of services, including concept art, on-set supervision, and pre-production to postviz and final VFX. Framestore’s team in Montreal, led by VFX Supervisors João Sita and Laureline Silan, delivered 125 shots capturing the series’ darkly satirical tone and its iconic irradiated creatures, the Yao Guai and Gulper. The concept art and postviz were crafted by Framestore's London-based Art Department and Framestore Pre-Production Services team (FPS) respectively.
“Having a lot of gamers at Framestore we know that Fallout franchise has an incredibly loyal fan base, so the pressure was really on to bring iconic creatures like the Yao Guai and Gulper convincingly to life,” says João Sita, VFX Supervisor. “Production VFX Supervisor Jay Worth and VFX Producer Andrea Knoll were brilliant collaborators because they knew exactly what they wanted in terms of the show’s visual language, and how they wanted to pay tribute to Fallout’s strange and often outrageous world. Jay has a longstanding working relationship with Jonathan Nolan and had been involved with the show from a very early stage, which meant he was able to really drill down into how our VFX could best serve the story. This made for a seamless, trusting working relationship, and one where a range of different crafts - from VFX and concept art to practical FX - really pulled together as one to deliver some fun, thoroughly gross, moments.
