Production VFX Supervisor Sirius Buisson talks about the VFX on the short film Welcome to Hoxford.
from the The Art of VFX:
What is your background?
I started to work on the animated series POLLUX at Action Synthèse at the end of 2007.
Then I joined Buf Compagnie where I worked at for three years and a half, and where I had the opportunity to work on different feature films as well as commercials. I worked on animated feature films such as ARTHUR & THE REVENGE OF MALTAZARD, but mostly on live films that integrate vfx like SPEED RACER, AVATAR, L’ASSAUT or even THOR.
During this time, I also had the chance to go supervise on the ADÈLE BLANC-SEC film shoot, which have been very enriching for me.
And last September, I threw myself into the project WELCOME TO HOXFORD.
How was the collaboration with director Julien Mokrani?
The collaboration with Julien was very interesting. We didn’t necessarily have the same background, yet it was very easy to get on with him and we could quickly decide together on which direction to take.
Julien is ready to listen to what we can bring to him, he always lets a bit of creativity while knowing very well what image he wants to obtain. And also, we share a common passion for comic strips, which enabled us to collaborate easily on the whole work of graphic adaptation.
How did you get involved on this project?
I got involved on this project thanks to Hélène Saint-Riquier, the vfx producer of the film, with who I had already worked on a Nina Ricci advert at Buf Compagnie. She told me about it very early, when the film was still being written. They were looking for an on set supervisor. The project, as well as the idea of working again on a film shoot, seduced me straight away.

Synopsis
Raymond Delgado is no ordinary prisoner...
On a good day he'll take the time to tell you he's the son of Zeus before he tears out your jugular. On a bad day, you won't even have a moment to call out for help.
After a yet another "incident" Raymond has been transferred to Hoxford, a correctional facility and mental institution known for its radical methods.
At Hoxford, Raymond’s not the only predator...
Come nightfall, under a full moon, bloodcurdling screams pierce through the darkness of the prison courtyard. It's hunting hour!
As the other Hoxford prisoners huddle in the obscurity of their prison cells trembling in fright, Ray cracks a smile. He thrives on confrontation.
Lock a human beast in a cage with a legendary monster and, in your opinion...
Who will devour? And who will be devoured?
