Atomic Fiction creates Blade Runner 2049 cityscapes with Foundry in a 3-minute case study

Atomic Fiction, a visual effects studio, faced the challenge of creating the iconic, claustrophobic, and atmospheric cityscapes for the film Blade Runner 2049. They utilized deep compositing in Foundry's Nuke to achieve a high level of control over depth and atmospheric elements for a more convincing and realistic result.

Foundry's solution enabled Atomic Fiction to build complex scenes with layers of volumetric elements, which brought a new level of reality and life to the film's aesthetic. The use of Nuke was pivotal, allowing the team to experiment efficiently to find the perfect creative look for the hotly anticipated sequel.
