We are thrilled to share a recent review from Ready Steady Cut by Ricky Valero, highlighting the contributions of MPC to Jacques Audiard’s Emilia Perez. In his October 26, 2024 review, Valero raves about the film’s visual storytelling, particularly the groundbreaking use of VFX that brings the vibrant yet gritty world of Mexico to life.
“I was blown away to find out Emilia Perez was shot on a stage using VFX because of how succinctly Mexico is captured and made a character in its own right,” Valero writes. The review goes on to applaud how the VFX team at MPC perfectly captures the dark yet beautiful essence of the city, transforming it into a living, breathing part of the narrative.
The seamless integration of VFX into the film’s environment is essential in drawing the audience into the world Audiard creates, where the landscape itself plays a crucial role in the characters’ journey. The review concludes with high praise for the VFX team, stating they “deserve all the flowers in the world for their work.”
Thank you, Ricky, for highlighting the magic that VFX can bring to storytelling! We are proud to have been a part of such a transformative project and look forward to seeing how the film continues to captivate audiences and critics alike.
