After bringing home the Academy Award and BAFTA for ‘Best Visual Effects’ for our work on Dune: Part One, DNEG was proud to return to Arrakis as lead VFX partner for Dune: Part Two and rejoin Director Denis Villeneuve for his visionary sequel.
A heartfelt thank you to Director Denis Villeneuve, Producer Mary Parent, Production VFX Supervisor Paul Lambert, and everyone at Legendary Pictures and Warner Bros. Pictures, for yet another fantastic collaboration and for continuing to entrust DNEG to help bring the world of Dune to life. And of course, to our incredible DNEG VFX crew – WE SALUTE YOU – you have outdone yourselves once again!
Bigger, bolder and breathtakingly beautiful, Dune: Part Two has been a huge worldwide success since its release on March 1st. We couldn’t be prouder of the outstanding work DNEG’s VFX team accomplished and we’re thrilled to see such an incredible response from the press and public:
