Jazz Tangcay Artisans Editor BAFTA-nominated visual effects supervisor Jake Morrison has joined VFX studio DNEG. Morrison, who has worked on films such as “Thor: Love and Thunder,” “Thor: Ragnarok” and Disney’s “Jungle Cruise,” has over 25 years of experience in visual effects.
His work on “Ant-Man” landed him his BAFTA nod for best special visual effects, and “Thor: The Dark World” earned him a Saturn Award nomination. In a statement to Variety, Morrison said, “The teams at DNEG have been at the forefront of visual effects for years, winning an unprecedented number of Academy Awards over the last decade and creating some truly imaginative and incredible work.
I am absolutely thrilled to extend my partnership with the studio, and looking forward to continuing to create, collaborate and innovate on some of the world’s biggest shows.” DNEG, founded in 1998 as Double Negative, is a British-based VFX house that has worked on blockbuster films such as “Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse” and “Fast X.” DNEG was most recently the sole VFX provider on Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer.” “I am proud to announce this new creative partnership agreement with Jake and heartily welcome this new association,” said Namit Malhotra, DNEG chairman and CEO. “DNEG has had the pleasure of working with Jake in his capacity as client-side supervisor on many big visual effects shows.
I have long admired his outstanding creative leadership. Our new partnership will allow DNEG to take advantage of new and untapped opportunities and will provide Jake with preferential access and a close working relationship with some of the best visual effects teams in the business here at DNEG.
