RTÉ (Ireland) and Ketnet (Belgium) have created a new live-action series (eight x 24 minutes) called "Louise Lives Large" for kids ages 9 to 13, which is about a teen cancer survivor working her way through a bucket list of all the things she has always wanted to do.

As you can see in the first shots of the trailer, Louise has no eyebrows. Luckily the actress did not have to shave them since we were able to digitally remove her eyebrows in all shots within the opening sequence of the series.

Stay tuned for a breakdown next week!

Exciting news about Immuno-T!

Remember Professor Tessa Kerre's brilliant idea to explain cancer treatments in a way everyone could understand? Well, we've been working hard to take her interactive motion comic to the next level!
After two years of design and development, Immuno-T has had an amazing transformation:

- Everything's now 100% redone in 3D
- We have comic book-style explanations AND animated videos
- There's even a cool VR experience at Living Tomorrow!

Why? Because understanding modern cancer treatments should be easy for patients, families, and anyone curious. The best part? It's still free and available on web, iPhones, and Android phones!

Thanks to UZ Gent, Ghent University, CRIG, and ION, we're making cancer education clearer for everyone.

Stay tuned for more updates!

Behind the scenes of “Louise Lives Large” - Where VFX meets real-life drama! 🎬✨ We had the privilege of working on the intro for this powerful RTÉ (Ireland) and Ketnet (Belgium) series. It’s 8x24 minutes of teen life, but with depth you might not expect. “Louise Lives Large” tackles heavy topics like cancer, bullying, and personal struggles, all while celebrating resilience and positivity. It’s about the complexities of school life, hidden truths, and the courage to be yourself. Our VFX mission? Digitally remove eyebrows to authentically portray a cancer patient’s journey. See how we: - Map and unwrap the face - Create a 3D model - Animate and color correct Tools: Blackmagic Fusion, PFTrack, Blender, and a ton of attention to detail. It’s all about bringing these authentic, multi-layered stories to life through VFX. Curious about our process or in need of similar solutions?
