From Creative Director Vico Sharabani at rhinofx :
"This was a really fun project with an equally ambitious vision. We were challenged to recreate and enhance the novelty and excitement of an amusement park, with the warmth and emotion of a wholesome family environment, and only had a short time to do it. Our VFX work needed to add to the already rich, nostalgic, and emotive look and feel. Mehdi was able to create an amazing sense of shots as if they were through an old camera lens and our entire team worked to add to this sense through effects and intense color treatments."
