Real SFX are truly thrilled to have been nominated twice for a BAFTA Craft award for our work on both His Dark Materials and Good Omens in the Special, Visual and Graphic effects category!
We share our His Dark Materials nomination with FRAMESTORE, PAINTING PRACTICE, and RUSSELL DODGSON.
Based on author Philip Pullman’s beloved trilogy, His Dark Materials follows Lyra, a brave young woman from another world. Lyra’s quest to find her kidnapped friend leads her to uncover a sinister plot of a secret organization, encounter extraordinary beings and protect dangerous secrets.
It has been an absolute pleasure working on this spectacular show with a very talented production team. Many thanks to Badwolf, Jane Tranter, Julie Gardener, Dan McCulloch & Laurie Borg, and a special thanks to the creative team Joel Collins and Robin Paiba.

David Tennant and Michael Sheen star as Crowley and Aziraphale, an angel and a demon, who have lived on Earth among the humans since The Beginning, discover that the forces of Heaven and Hell are preparing for the Final Battle.
