This Hawkeye VFX breakdown from Weta Digital pulls back the curtain on one of the Disney+ series’ most memorable sequences. Hawkeye starred Jeremy Renner and Hailee Steinfeld across six episodes released in November and December 2021, following retired Avenger Clint Barton as he mentors young archer Kate Bishop through a Christmastime heist gone wrong in New York City.
Weta Digital has released a video showcasing the visual effects for the “Hawkeye” TV series. The VFX breakdown highlights the intricate detail and complexity Weta Digital incorporated into each scene. CG set extensions, digital Bridge model and matte paintings were all used to create the background skylines of New York. This type of effect was used throughout the movie to create various scenes that would have been difficult or impossible to shoot on location.
