VFX Notes: The VFX of ‘RRR’ – Part 1

The big, bold VFX sequences from this glorious film.

For me, watching RRR this year has been like no other movie experience for some time.

In this new VFX Notes episode, Hugo Guerra and I look into the making of the film, including aspects of its production and some of the major VFX moments. This is part 1 of 2 of our VFX Notes coverage.
