Brief Visual effects on 60-, 30- and 20-second promos in which an imminent murder is portrayed as a dance.

How it was done The team was asked to create an apparition that appears and disappears from the mist as it descends across the dales.

The project required a variety of VFX applications, including Houdini and Maya, to create the realistic-looking apparition.

Attention was paid to the fluidity of the effects, the speed at which the apparition descends, and the detail and length of the mist trail. Layers were also composited into the foreground to tie the scene together and give it an ethereal feel.

It was directed by Jon Yeo with Elena Estevez Santos as VFX supervisor, Tom Rowell as CG supervisor and Gez Hixson as VFX producer.

The technical directors were Nacho Garcia and Manu Perez Sanz.
