Strong roots grow in unlikely places.  

In the dystopian landscape of London, 2024, soaring house prices, automated labour, and the dissolution of the Welfare State have transformed the city into a playground for billionaires.

Kibwe Tawares’ directorial debut , this shift has relegated the lower classes to desolate, provincial high-rises resembling slums.

For this Netflix movie, we enhanced the realism and visual impact of the scenes by meticulously working on the lighting of the CG sets. This comprehensive approach enabled the team to deliver visually compelling shots. 

We animated a fully rigged and textured 3D drone into the plate, while the actors interacted with our hand-textured rocks. 

These rocks not only engaged with the 3D drones but also interacted with the characters’ hands and the practical on-set slingshot. 

Richard Baker was the VFX Supervisor. Animated a 3D drone. Integrated 3D. 

The Kitchen won Best Effects at the British Independent Film Awards (2023).
