Method Studios, Deluxes global visual effects company, has named industry professional Marc Weigert as its president.
Weigert is a well regarded expert and innovator in his field having worked across many capacities in film production and post-production for over 20 years. Most recently he served as co-producer, visual effects supervisor and second-unit director on Sony Pictures 2013 release, White House Down, one of several Roland Emmerich-directed films on which he has worked.
Prior to joining Method, Weigert was CEO of film production company Uncharted Territory, which he co-founded with effects expert Volker Engel in 1999. Here, Weigert was overall VFX supervisor and co-producer on 2012 and supervised VFX shots on Paramounts Oscar-winning release, the Martin Scorsese-directed Hugo. He also won an Emmy award for the mini-series The Triangle and acted as project manager on Independence Day. He continues to be a stakeholder in Uncharted Territory.
Ive been fortunate to work on some of the most challenging and rewarding visual effects projects around, Weigert said. I try to instill a sense of innovation into everything I do from both an artistic and technological standpoint. This ethos fits perfectly with Methods goals and Im excited to work with such talented artists, producers and support crew, and help build on all they have achieved.
Having an incredibly accomplished visual effects pro such as Marc leading Method should prove of immense value to the company and its clients, Deluxe Creative Services President Stefan Sonnenfeld said. His vast experience in managing and supervising large scale VFX productions, as well as building up his own company, will help Method continue to grow in reputation and scale.
Method continues to work on top-flight film projects including Jupiter Ascending, The Maze Runner and The Giver. The companys past projects include recent releases Divergent for Summit Entertainment and Marvel Studios Thor: The Dark World.
