In this series, we’re highlighting world-class studios where artists trained by Ganz and Andrew have gone on to work.

Each post celebrates the incredible work these studios have created over the years, the same kind of productions our graduates now help bring to life.
Today: Rodeo FX, for the truck fight sequence in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier Season 1.

In a “breaking down the breakdown” video, VFX Supervisor Sébastien Francoeur walks through how the team approached one of the show’s most demanding action sequences. The challenge wasn’t just spectacle, it was maintaining continuity across several minutes of high-pace action while making sure speed always read clearly on screen.

Rather than solving shots in isolation, the team designed a larger systemic solution that allowed continuity and pacing to survive editorial changes. Speed, reflections, and lighting were treated as critical storytelling elements, not surface polish.

The breakdown also hints at the realities of modern production, plates shot in different countries, angles that don’t match geographically, and the quiet work required to unify everything into a single believable location.

It’s a smart look at how planning, methodology, and restraint keep a complex action sequence coherent. Well worth watching the full breakdown.
