“Navigating the intricate and time-sensitive landscape of VFX in advertising demands nothing but top-tier talent capable of delivering stunning visuals within tight deadlines. Every project presents us with a unique challenge and a chance to raise our own high standards even further. I’m thrilled to share the collective mastery and dedication that have shaped The Mill’s latest Epic FX Reel. It stands as a true testament to the incredible skill and commitment of our global team of artists., shared Selcuk Ergen, Head of CG at The Mill.
Zoe Izzard, Editor at The Mill, reflected on the continuous amazement at her colleagues’ talent, stating that editing reels featuring the finest FX shots from global studios remains one of her greatest joys”Even after two decades in the VFX industry, I continue to be amazed by the incredible talent of my colleagues. The standards and realism improve each year, and as an in-house editor at The Mill, one of my greatest joys is editing reels like this one. Featuring the finest FX shots from top commercials across our global studios, what’s not to love about a job like mine?”
The reel demonstrates the diverse range of effects produced by The Mill, from grand explosions to subtle simulations. The team navigates an extensive spectrum, handling everything from stormy oceans in Prada and delicate paint peeling in Renault’s ‘Rafale’ commercial to creating stardust gowns for Mugler’s ‘Angel.’
Benjamin Lenfant, an FX artist at The Mill, highlighted the noteworthy aspect of these effects—their foundation in physical constraints and realities, ingeniously manipulated to align with the aesthetic and narrative of each project. “In the public’s subconscious, when FX is mentioned, there’s an expectation of witnessing grand explosions. While explosions are indeed part of FX, they encompass a wide array of effects, from the conspicuous to the subtle. At The Mill, we have the capability to navigate this extensive spectrum. This includes heavy simulations involving calculations for stormy oceans or waves, as seen in the film Prada or the latest ‘Divine’ campaign for Jean Paul Gaultier. We’ve crafted simulations of voluptuous clouds unfolding for “Invictus,” delicately peeling paint from a vintage aircraft in the latest Renault ‘Rafale’ commercial, and set sequins in motion for Rabane.”
