Paul and the entire team at Foxtrot X-Ray were indispensable to the creation of our film Superstar. Their contributions, from fine-tuning small details to constructing entire environments, were pivotal in shaping the essence of the project. Paul and his team played an integral role in defining what Superstar has become.

Continuing our commitment to assisting Arizona filmmakers with their visual effects needs, Foxtrot X-Ray produced 16 invisible VFX shots for the short film “Superstar” which was produced by Save the Airwaves and Spellbinder, and directed by Jacob Heimlich and Talha Hussaini.

Foxtrot X-Ray’s Paul DeNigris was on set as VFX supervisor for the film, overseeing the sequence that plays out in the “black void” of Frankie’s fractured mind, as well as the haunting opening accident shot.
