Creation of the Gods : Kingdom of Storms

Sylvan was VFX Supervisor at Anibrain on Creation of the Gods: Kingdom of Storms, directed by Wuershan, and also took on the FX and CG Supervisor roles. The film adapts the 16th-century novel Investiture of the Gods and is the first in a trilogy.

Anibrain’s work included a magicians’ battle, floating heads, the courtroom battle and complex water sequences, all built in Houdini on a pipeline Sylvan had developed with the studio over earlier projects. Much of the show was supervised from his London studio during COVID, alongside two other films.

Supervising from London with the team in India, through a pandemic, was quite an adventure. They did beautiful work and were an amazing dedicated team.
