From T2 to Indie Film: Behind the Neo-Noir Thriller Proof Sheet with Richard Kilroy and Keith Clark

VFX for Indies

When a director like Richard Kilroy goes from creating matte paintings for the visual effects of some of the biggest movies of all time like Terminator 2 and Titanic, to directing his own indie thriller, you know there will be some inspiring visual effects and fascinating behind-the-scenes stories. Richard and his editor Keith Clark join host Paul DeNigris in discussing the magic behind their indie neo-noir Proof Sheet. Visual effects were used to not only help convincingly set the film in 1999 Los Angeles, but also to create a lived-in world peppered with the evocative imagery of the film noir genre. Reflections, mirrors, frames within the frame, and most importantly the tools and techniques of the photochemical process all play a part in laying the groundwork for a twisty and satisfying mystery - and VFX is a big part of that puzzle!
