Mike Chapman The Mill's 3D lead explains his role "After spending a lot of time and detail studying solar eclipse references, sun surface textures and solar storms we got completely stuck in and re-created all of the beautiful solar shots in the spot."
Chris Batten, The Mill's VFX Producer adds "While we developed and created the solar eclipse, storms and the sun the director, Sam Brown and the Rogue crew flew to the LA salt flats to shoot the live action sequences along with very specific practical FX plates for us so we could later comp around the car. The end result is a beautiful piece of work."
