The Little Mermaid | VFX Breakdown | Framestore

Framestore provided over 550 visual effects shots for Walt Disney Studios’ The Little Mermaid, directed by Rob Marshall. Led by Visual Effects Supervisor Andy Kind, the studios across London, Montreal and Mumbai created Ariel’s underwater kingdom, the merpeople who live there (including Ariel, King Triton, and her six sisters), as well as her best friends Sebastian, Flounder, and Scuttle.

3:21 - Would've been a cool easter egg to have Cogsworth and Lumiere (since Framestore also did Beauty and the Beast) in their static state between all the objects in Ariel's grotto.

Beautiful, but you didn't put as nearly as effort in creating phoenix for Mulan lol
PS Can we get VFX of merfolk only & all scenes that were cut? ❤

nothing about merfolk 😭

[@Sairawkerh]

What software they are using for?

[@btn237]

All of them (there are many used on one shot - different tools for texturing, lighting, modelling, simulation etc), plus some of their own (Framestore has some bespoke tools for example for grooming hair).
Common 3D industry tools in VFX are Maya, Houdini, Nuke, Renderman.
“The first thing to know is that anyone looking for a career in visual effects will need to have some knowledge of our standard industry software (Maya or Nuke are best) and when they apply they submit their CV along with a demo reel that demonstrates that experience.”
That’s from Framestore’s own web page.
