Midnight Texas VFX Breakdown



Midnight, Texas is an American supernatural drama television series broadcast on NBC. Midnight, Texas is based on the book series of the same name by author Charlaine Harris, who also wrote The Southern Vampire Mysteries, the novels which were adapted into the True Blood television series. The series premiered on July 24, 2017. On February 14, 2018, NBC renewed the series for a second season, which will premiere on October 26, 2018.

On the run from his past, young psychic Manfred Bernardo is told by the ghost of his grandmother to seek out refuge in Midnight, Texas. There, he will find a community that can help him. Full of diverse characters—including a vampire, a witch, a fallen angel, a demon and a shapeshifter—Midnight faces numerous threats from the outside world as it welcomes the newcomer.

Midnight Texas is an American drama series based on the books by Charlaine Harris (of “True Blood” fame) and is directed by Niels Arden Oplev – director of “Mr Robot”. The story is set in the remote Texan town Midnight, where no one is who they seem.  From vampires and witches to psychics and hit men, Midnight is a mysterious safe haven for those who are different. And as the town members fight off outside pressures from rowdy biker gangs, ever-suspicious cops and their own dangerous pasts, they band together and form a strong and unlikely family.

Our Stockholm and London studios worked together on this project, delivering VFX to two episodes of the first season. This is a VFX breakdown of how we solved some shots in ep 4, involving a rather wicked witch in great need of a dentist.
