Space Race: Infinite Possibilities of Virtual Production
Denis Villeneuve's interpretation of the classic 1965 Frank Herbert novel will see Dune adapted to the big screen using ground-breaking artificial backdrops to bring Dune's feudal interstellar society to life.
At the forefront of the film's technology is DNEG, a London-based VFX house whose virtual production credits already included Interstellar and First Man - for which it received Academy Awards.
