For visual-effects companies, it’s reimagining a craft that was already primed to create solutions for the rest of the industry.
Big-name visual-effects houses had projects in the pipeline when lockdowns started all over the world.

Taylor Swift fooled nearly everyone in her latest music video (and directorial debut), “The Man,” in which she dressed up as her own male alter ego “Tyler Swift” to demonstrate toxic masculinity in the workplace.
