The creator of award-winning software details how it was used to create hyperrealism of ‘Blade Runner 2049’

While no one’s making the argument that 2017’s Blade Runner 2049 is better than the original, there is an argument to be made about its phenomenal visual effects. Now we’re getting some insight into why they were so spectacular, right from the source.

Last week, The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences gave Sébastien Deguy and his team a technical achievement award for the Adobe Substance 3D Designer software, which was used with great effect in the latter Blade Runner. It turns out that DeGuy has a “PhD in applied math and random processes” and was trying to find a way to “accurately” represent things like cloud and textures on objects, per Variety.
