from the CGS article:

In Men in Black 3, Agents J and Agent K go back in time in this third instalment of the franchise based on the Malibu comic by Lowell Cunningham. Agent J has seen some crazy things in his 15 years with the Men in Black, but nothing, not even aliens, perplexes him as much as his wry, reticent partner. But when K's life and the fate of the planet are put at stake, Agent J will have to travel back in time to put things right. J discovers that there are secrets to the universe that K never told him -- secrets that will reveal themselves as he teams up with the young Agent K (Josh Brolin) to save his partner, the agency, and the future of humankind. Just a normal run-of-the-mill kind of day for the Men in Black.

The team who created the effects for the show includes seven-time Oscar-winner (as well as one for his work on Men In Black) Rick Baker designing the aliens; five-time Oscar-winner Ken Ralston and Jay Redd supervising the visual effects; animation supervisor Spencer Cook from the Spider-Man and Matrix franchises as well as Corey Turner as the 3D Supervisor, who’d worked as Stereographer on Transformers: Dark of the Moon. The workload was pretty heavy, with every single shot, 1,780 [perhaps more] of them in the 3D version of the film, having a VFX component.
