Here’s a taste of what we tackled on Superman:

We collaborated closely with director James Gunn and VFX Supervisor Stéphane Ceretti to reimagine Superman’s world, not just with spectacle, but with nuance, heart, and technical innovation.

-Krypto the Superdog. Inspired by James Gunn’s dog Ozu, we captured every subtle gesture, emotion, and furry leap to ensure Krypto felt like a genuine canine first, only one who happened to have superpowers.

-The Fortress of Solitude: We designed the Fortress using more than 6000 reflective crystals, each one a challenge in shading, lighting, and rendering.

-4D Gaussian Splatting: A first in feature film, we used 4D Gaussian Splat to create Superman’s Kryptionian parents hologram.

-And also the Engineer’s nanite power suit, SupermanRobots, Lex vs Krypto fight scene and more! You can learn about our work here: https://www.framestore.com/work/superman

We’ll be back today (Tuesday 8/16) at 3PM ET to answer your burning questions. In the meantime, ask away, we’re excited to dive into the murk and magic of bringing Superman to life! Ask us anything!
