Devs

Devs is a television series created and directed by Alex Garland for FX on Hulu, with VFX provided by DNEG and supervised by Andrew Whitehurst.

I worked on the show as a CG Supervisor at DNEG for a year, managing all 268 shots over 8 episodes. The project involved 50 assets and 900 artists, with 300 in London. I was honoured to be nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Special Visual Effects in a Supporting Role for Devs.
