THE SYNOPSIS
In Marvel’s “Iron Man 3,” directed by Shane Black, Tony Stark/Iron Man goes on a harrowing quest to find the enemy who has destroyed his personal life. As his journey unfolds, audiences are introduced to dozens of new suits – all stemming from Digital Domain’s creative development of 14 ‘foundation’ designs, including the new Mark 42. Under the direction of VFX Supervisor Erik Nash, Digital Domain also created the key ‘barrel of monkeys’ sky rescue sequence, a photo-real computer-generated version of Air Force One, the look of the human-body-generated explosion at the Chinese Theater, and more complex environments.
