Crafting Malgosha, The Mean Queen 'Gosh'

Creating a believable digital character that has never existed requires a large team of dedicated people. We often have real-world source material to reference, but in the case of Malgosha, there was nothing but a concept and a charmingly low-resolution game world. That's when we rely on Wētā FX's recipe of collaboration working towards a common goal of making audiences believe that something unbelievable is real.

Abstract

Creating a believable digital character that has never existed requires a large team of dedicated people. We often have real-world source material to reference, but in the case of Malgosha, there was nothing but a concept and a charmingly low-resolution game world. That's when we rely on Wētā FX's recipe of collaboration working towards a common goal of making audiences believe that something unbelievable is real.
