Black Sails – Season 3

Studio: STARZ

Visual Effects Supervisor: Aladino Debert

Visual Effects Producer: Charles Bolwell

Showrunner: Jonathan Steinberg & Robert Levine

THE SYNOPSIS

Digital Domain's team returned to work on Season 3 of Starz's "Black Sails," creating magnificent CG water work and fully CG environments. As it follows the most feared pirate of the day, Captain Flint (Toby Stephens), taking place twenty years prior to Robert Louis Stevenson's classic 'Treasure Island.' DD developed an entirely new water system, unlike anything we'd done before to execute a gale strength storm allowing the desired art direction between the ships and waves. The studio also created ten new ships for this season, dozens of pirate Digi-doubles, and a phenomenal underwater sequence.
