Details

At UNIT, we’re thrilled to unveil our work on this special project, where our VFX team brought 1960s New York to life with stunning CGI and meticulously crafted scenes.

UNIT’s VFX Team, led by Leire Eatock, UNIT Senior Nuke Compositor, and Iñaki Gegundez, UNIT Senior VFX Artist, was briefed to create the 1960s New York City skyline for a pivotal scene initially filmed on green screen in which Epstein steps out onto a balcony and looks out across the vast Manhattan skyline. This cinematic moment represents all the exciting opportunities America offers together with Epstein’s hopes and fears of the imminent change ahead.
