We go in-depth with wetafxofficial artist Sidney Kombo-Kintombo, exploring how Talokan was crafted in BlackPantherWakandaForever and what went into the look of Namor and his people:
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever's stunning visual effects brought the underwater city of Talokan to life. The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been continually expanding in Phase 4, and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever introduced a new underwater kingdom. The city of Talokan is ruled over by Namor the Sub-Mariner, played by Tenoch Huerta and clearly set up as a power player in the future of the MCU.
From a story point of view, the sequences were the mining mission in the beginning, when they go down and find the vibranium; some of Nakia's dive down into the water, all of Talokan underwater, and some of the end battles with the vibranium detector and those beasts in that realm. It was a combination of this particular aesthetic. And we leaned into this realistic cloudy, murky water, which you don't often see a lot in films.
Then one of our bigger challenges is that red light naturally absorbs quicker underwater, it doesn't last very long, but all the architecture was red, and the skin-tones are warm. We had the technical challenge where we needed to be realistic underwater, but we also needed to carry on this story point. A lot of our tools were developed to give us this realistic base, and controls to augment that to fulfil the creative brief.It sounds quite challenging.
Could you tell us a little about how you designed Talokan, and brought the city to life so effectively?
