Andy Hargreaves has joined Ghost VFX, Streamland Media’s visual effects division, as a VFX Supervisor. He’ll work out of the company’s London studio, though he’ll be available to service projects anywhere in the world.
Hargreaves has over 20 years of experience across commercials, films, and episodic television, including Prehistoric Planet, The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, and Marvel’s Inhumans.
“We’re thrilled to have Andy join Ghost VFX at our London studio,” Ghost VFX President Patrick Davenport said in a statement. “He knows how to get the very best from artists and support them in the process. His experience and accolades make him a trusted partner to filmmakers and a great addition to our expanding global team.”
Hargreaves, who previously worked for DNEG and MPC, was recently nominated for an HPA Award for Outstanding Visual Effects for Prehistoric Planet. His additional credits include working on BAFTA Award nominee Emerald City, the Emmy and BAFTA-winning series Outlander, and the popular crime drama Death in Paradise.
“I’m excited to be joining Ghost VFX at such an incredible stage of growth and development here in London and globally,” Hargreaves said in his own statement. “I’m looking forward to building relationships with the team and becoming an integral part of that growth.”
In addition to London, Ghost VFX has studios worldwide in Copenhagen, Los Angeles, Manchester, Toronto, and Vancouver, and its Pune studio is moving into a new facility this year. The company’s recent credits include The Book of Boba Fett, The Mandalorian, Troll, and the upcoming blockbuster Fast X.
