When the Smallest Requires the Biggest Effects
In Quantumania, the Quantum Realm stopped being a mere visual effect to become a character in its own right. Thanks to Folks VFX, that microworld is now as vast as it is problematic for render departments. Because in Marvel, even the tiniest things come in XXL size. 🔍✨
"We didn't just create a setting, but an entire ecosystem with its own physical rules. Where a building can be liquid and a particle, an entire landscape."
Quantum Physics for Visual Artists
The team developed:
- Houdini simulations for space-time deformations
- Clarisse rendering to handle trillions (yes, trillions) of particles
- Living textures that changed according to the 'laws' of the Quantum Realm
The result is so hypnotic that even theoretical physicists were left confused. 🌀
Creatures That Defy Biology (and the Budget)
From gelatinous beings to:
- Geometric entities with impossible rigging
- Quantum beasts that constantly recombine
- Energy effects that flow like luminous liquids
Because in the Quantum Realm, even a cameo requires 15 simulation passes. 💫
Battles Where Size Is the Least of It
The key sequences included:
- Distorted scales in real time
- Environments that fold like digital origami
- Lighting that changes according to the quantum state
So now you know: the next time you complain about disk space, think of the poor artists who had to render entire universes inside an atom. 💾⚛️
