RICHARD CLEGG, MPC

Richard Clegg, visual effects supervisor at MPC, recently led the global MPC team for the film Blade Runner 2049, creating the stunning digital character Rachel, played by Sean Young in the original film. Director Denis Villeneuve entrusted Richard and his team with one of the most complex tasks in visual effects: the reunion between Rachel and Deckard, 35 years after the release of Blade Runner in 1982. Throughout his career, Richard has participated in VFX teams on more than 20 films, including Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, for which he created the digital makeup for Captain Salaza. In Terminator Genisys, he supervised the construction of the character Young Arnie, and for Kenneth Branagh's remake of Cinderella, he created a magical fairytale world. Richard began his career in 2005, joining the MPC studio in London as a Lighting and LookDev artist on Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. He went on to work on several other films with significant visual effects, including Angels and Demons, The Wolfman, and Chronicles of... Narnia e World War Z.
