Fast X

As the main VFX partner on ‘Fast X’, DNEG delivered over 1,000 shots across two major sequences - the Rome bomb sequence, which occurs early on, and the Portugal car chase in the third act.

For the Rome bomb sequence, our VFX team created the Rome city environment, using aerial plate photography to reconstruct geometry and constructing full CG buildings, alongside background replacement and crowd work. Both the large-scale explosion and following shockwave were created with lots of different passes to determine the different types of debris, building destruction, water simulation, spray and waves, and dust from the ground.

The third act car chase sequence consisted of several intricate beats, including a car jump, tunnel grab, and highway chase. Our team created multiple environments, CG assets including planes, helicopters, a Charger RT, Ford Fairlane, and the iconic El Camino cannon car, hero digi-doubles, and FX fire and explosions.
