Mike Seymour, Matt Leonard and Jason Diamond discuss the visual effects in the feature film, Looper.
For additional coverage fxguide looks at just some of the key sequences from the film. Rian Johnson’s journey into the not-too-distant future with Looper brought with it an accompanying trip into the world of visual effects, something the director was initially hesitant to do. But guided by visual effects supervisor Karen Goulekas and teams of artists across the globe, Looper ended up with 388 shots.
