As the visual effects supervisor, I was in charge of everything that had to do with VFX. I was responsible for collecting onset data (HDRIs, scene measurements, camera data, reference photos) and liaising with the director, cinematographer, production designer and other members of the team to ensure that scenes which would require post are shot properly as well as ensuring that anything that could be done onset to aid the visual effects was done.
Payday is now available to stream on Netflix.
