Jenna Ortega as Wednesday Addams holding an umbrella in the rain, from Netflix’s Wednesday series filmed using virtual production at Ashford Studios.
  • Client: Netflix / MGM
  • Location: Ashford Studios, Wicklow
  • Year: 2024

Smart, sarcastic and a little dead inside, Wednesday Addams investigates twisted mysteries while making new friends — and foes — at Nevermore Academy.

The second series of the hugely popular ‘Wednesday’ was filmed in Ireland in 2024, seeing Jenna Ortega’s Wednesday Addams return to Nevermore.

High Res provided a hybrid VP workflow for driving scenes; giving DP PJ Dillon interactive lighting from the LED walls placed around the car, with an inner blue frustum and tracking markers for VFX supervisor Tom Turnbull and the VFX team.
