Our Flag Means Death

As the lead vendor for Our Flag Means Death, DNEG delivered 355 shots across 49 sequences and all 10 episodes in the series. Our team was responsible for the execution of all ship assets, as well as water setups and environment extensions, including the creation of a tiny island in the middle of the ocean, that was extended from the original live action set. Every shot contributed to the dark comedy of the series, which was written and produced by David Jenkins and Taika Waititi. 

Our team also delivered some incredible creature work, which included a Kraken for episode 106 as well as creating Blackbeard’s head from black smoke for the first season of this beloved fan-favourite series.
