Get to know more about Laurens Ehrmann and The Yard VFX in an exclusive interview published by World VFX Day.
From working on Batman Begins and The Matrix Revolutions to founding one of France’s premier VFX studios, Laurens Ehrmann’s journey in the visual effects industry is nothing short of inspiring.
In this exclusive interview to World VFX Day, he opens up about the challenges of building The Yard VFX from the ground up—starting with just five computers in a garage—and the key steps that led to its international expansion.
Laurens shares how pivotal projects like WandaVision, John Wick: Chapter 4, and the recently award-winning All The Light We Cannot See and The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (Season 2) helped define The Yard’s reputation, as well as the special role that industry figures Olivier Dumont (Ford v Ferrari) and Viet Luu (The Gray Man) played in the studio’s breakthrough onto major productions.
He also reflects on how his artist-first approach has shaped The Yard’s culture, the lessons learned over a decade in business, and what’s next as the company continues to push creative boundaries.
