When veteran Marvel visual effects supervisor Christopher Townsend — who has Oscar nominations for "Iron Man 3," "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2" and "Shang Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings" — stepped into TV work with Season 2 of "Loki," the project wasn't as different from his feature film work as he had expected.
The season featured a whopping 1,210 VFX shots (for comparison, “Shang Chi” had 1,761) and they were similarly distributed among a group of well-known VFX companies including Framestore, Industrial Light & Magic, Trixter, Rising Sun Pictures, FuseFX, Cantina and Lola.
And as expected, they also had to meet the highest standards for effects.
