Oscar-winning creative studio Framestore has appointed Thomas Montminy Brodeur as VFX supervisor to further bolster the company’s episodic offering under New York managing director, Charles Howell. 

With 15 years of industry experience, Montminy Brodeur will be charged with developing methodologies and maintaining high-end image quality across a variety of episodic projects.

Joining Framestore from Rodeo FX in Montreal, Montminy Brodeur spent the last decade in the roles of digital compositor, digital compositing supervisor, and most recently VFX supervisor on primetime shows such as Black Sails, Crawl and Watchmen. He also worked on Game of Thrones (seasons 4-7), during which time he acted as compositing supervisor for seasons 6 and 7. 

Montminy Brodeur began his career at Framestore in London as a paint and roto artist working on films such as Where the Wild Things Are, Avatar, and Sherlock Holmes.  “Many years ago, Framestore gave me my first shot at a dream job,” he said. “The opportunity to be back with such an incredible team, pushing the limits of what we are capable of as a company and an industry is extremely exciting to me.”

“Thomas is a holistic problem-solver of the highest caliber, capable of delivering amazing images,” said Howell. “The four seasons of experience on Game of Thrones, in addition to the countless other shows he’s worked on, have equipped him with the expertise to lead teams with a strategic mindset.” 

Montminy Brodeur claims a host of industry awards, including a VES Award for Outstanding Environment in a Photoreal Episode for Game of Thrones, as well as a Giant Screen Cinema Association (GSCA) Award for Best Visual Effects. He graduated from Collège Mérici in Quebec City with a diploma in multimedia, an AEC degree in visual effects compositing at Institut Grasset.

Discovering his passion of imparting knowledge and skills to the next generation of artists, he has also taught compositing at Institut Grasset, l’Université du Québec en Abitibi-Témiscamingue (UQAT) and O’Sullivan College of Québec.  Moreover, he later earned an undergraduate certificate in 3D for visual effects from UQAT to further build his skillset and understanding across departments in order to produce the best solutions for clients.
