#11 – Outlander: Eye of the storm

In episode 11 of Yellow Brick Road we meet the team behind the VES Award nominated effects of the drama series Outlander: VFX Supervisors Filip Orrby and Daniel Norlund and VFX Producer Matilda Olsson. How did they create the storm scenes in the episode “Eye of the storm”, why is it so hard to create digital water and do VFX artists ever get seasick from working with stormy ocean effects like these?
