The MPC Paris teams produced 287 VFX shots over 8 episodes in collaboration with Excuse My French. Production was spread out from August 2021 to February 2022. We also participated in the pre-visualisation of the arrival shot at the port of Marseille well before the start of post-production.

The MPC teams worked the magic behind a plethora of aspects of the show, including set extension, crowds, digital dubbing, creatures, treatment of anachronisms, wounds, weapons, etc.
