Working with concept art supplied by the production team, Hybride artists took over the development of the transition effects, delivering a total of 70 logogram shots for the film.
Other VFX by Hybride include look development and animation for the fog, where realistic interaction with the aliens was critical.
"We are extremely proud of our participation on this film, which is already a huge success," said Pierre Raymond, President and Head of Operations at Hybride.
"It's very motivating to be given a mandate where creativity is at the heart of the process. The visual effects requested for Arrival were quite ambitious and we're especially honoured by the confidence Denis Villeneuve has shown us by entrusting Hybride with key scenes in the film."
