Dr. Nova Thorpe has but a few minutes before the inevitable. But before then she must warn everyone that the experiment went horribly wrong. (IMDb)

Foxtrot X-Ray did all the VFX in this award-winning short film “Nova” - including the futuristic HUD on Dr. Thorpe's helmet, stitching together multiple takes to create the appearance of a seamless long take, and all the digital makeup effects (enhancing the already amazing work of the practical makeup FX artists).
