All about time slipping and spaghettification in ‘Loki’ s2

June 4, 2024

Plus, how the loom scenes were achieved.

Today on the befores & afters podcast, we’re chatting to Marvel visual effects supervisor Christopher Townsend about season 2 of Loki. In particular we jump into all aspects of time slipping, spaghettification, the loom and the invisible visual effects in this season. We cover work done by VFX studios such as Framestore, Trixter, ILM and Rising Sun Pictures. Plus we explore what it was like to film sequences with Tom Hiddleston on set. This is a really fun chat and Chris shares a lot here about designing VFX sequences, and then executing them.
