Beetlejuice Beetlejuice in the Art of VFX

VFX Supervisor Mat Krentz shares insights into our work for Beetlejuice Beetlejuice in an interview with Art of VFX. Mat discusses how his team brought a Burtonesque cast of creatures to life—including Baby Beetlejuice, a dismembered Delores, and Charles Deetz bitten by a shark. He also explores the balance between practical effects and CGI, and the unique challenges of realizing Tim Burton’s distinctive vision.

Our team delivered invisible VFX, completing 253 shots that augmented the film's unique aesthetic and brought a Burtonesque cast of creatures to life. Working closely with Production VFX Supervisor, Angus Bickerton, puppeteers, costume designers, and other crafts, our team—led by VFX Supervisor Mat Krentz and VFX Producer Dan Booty—seamlessly integrated CG enhancements with practical elements and effects, preserving the film's throwback and handcrafted feel while using contemporary technology.
