Led by VFX Supervisors Malte Sarnes and Axel Bonami, the visual effects work for Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania was a collaborative effort between MPC’s Adelaide, Montreal, Bangalore, and LA teams. The VFX teams used the latest tools and artistry to create the film’s breathtaking visuals, with over 1000 artists delivering more than 800 shots. MPC Adelaide’s Concept Art team, under the supervision of Art Director Nicholas Pill, and MPC LA’s Concept Art team, led by Art Director Leandre Lagrange, were tasked with designing the background for a specific location in the Quantum Realm, Guerilla Village. To visualize this environment, the team researched microscopic, subatomic, and neural network references, as well as artists such as Gerard van Smirren.
