2022 has been an interesting year at BOT VFX; Not only did we move past the pandemic and embrace the new world challenges, the team had the opportunity to work on many exciting and challenging projects including Avatar: The Way of Water, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Black Adam, Wakanda Forever and Beast.
We took off to new heights in full-service VFX for our clients. Many new faces became part of the team, ready to change us for the better and take BOT VFX to a whole new level in the VFX world. We on-boarded our DFX Supervisor, CG Supervisor and Art Director to pilot us on this collective journey forward.
John Joseph Britto, our DFX Supervisor, believes in working smart. His favourite thing about BOT is that both the art and the artist are recognized and appreciated. John wants to build on that and make Indian art appreciated worldwide. Having worked in many different VFX pipelines he intends to find the perfect confluence of art and technology. His plan is to make BOT VFX a household name across the VFX industry and known across the globe for both their art and their artists. Presently captaining many shows, he is well-equipped to fly us through any weather for a smooth ride.
Our CG Supervisor, Manjunath M S has many plans and goals for this journey. While he is assisting in building the crew, he is focused on bringing out the best in the team and bettering the current pipeline. A strong believer of collaborative teamwork, Manjunath is buckling up to take on any challenge that comes their way. Not only does he enjoy the BOT filter-kaapi, he loves the open culture at BOT that aspires to have no bias or hierarchy and provide good work-life balance. Manjunath aims to keep to these while creating amazing visual effects that transcend boundaries.
Siromani Kalpana Mahapatro is not someone who just goes with the flow, instead, she learns to steer the winds into taking her where she needs to go. Our Art Director loves to face challenges, keep learning and level up. She is all about change and evolving, so it’s only natural that she is passionate about new technology and AI in particular. Her plan is to have built a team that stays up-to-date and adapts with the current trends while mastering the art.
The BOTs look forward to growing and scaling new heights as a team.
