Framestore London

ABOUT

Rocketing to a record-breaking opening weekend success and being labelled one of the best Marvel films yet, Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy takes the Marvel Cinematic Universe into deep space with the universe’s most unlikely bunch of heroes.

Framestore created one of those heroes in the form of Rocket Raccoon (voiced by Bradley Cooper) and animated both him and his arboreal companion Groot (Vin Diesel) in the middle act of the movie that spans more than 40 minutes and 633 final shots. We also created the cavernous expanse of Knowhere – a giant mined out skull that’s home to a whole city – the most complicated environment we’ve ever built.

Working with overall VFX Supervisor Stephane Ceretti, our work was overseen by Framestore VFX Supervisors Jonathan Fawkner and Kyle McCulloch, with the latter on set at Shepperton and Longcross studios in the UK.
