VFX Society Honors: ‘Avatar’ Vet Celebrates ‘Thrill of Technically and Artistically Problem-Solving’
'Avatar' Vet Brooke Breton accepted the VES Founders Award during the 2024 VES Honors ceremony
Producer and VFX industry leader Brooke Breton—whose work has included “Avatar,” “Sky Captain and The World of Tomorrow,” and a trio of “Star Trek” movies, reflected on teamwork and the “thrill of technically and artistically problem-solving” as she accepted the Visual Effects Society ’s Founders Award.
