INSIDE THE CIRCLE

SYNOPSIS


A high-stakes murder and a web of corruption. CG helicopters, digital crowds and action-packed sequences for a political thriller. Inside the Circle is a drama series based on Jorge Zepeda Patterson's novel Los Corruptores. The story follows four childhood friends whose lives unravel after the murder of a renowned actress, forcing them into a high-stakes network of political blackmail and dark secrets that test their loyalty. Our work spanned a wide range of 3D and 2D visual effects, from CG helicopters, vehicles and digital crowds to subtle CG moths and atmospheric effects such as rain, mist and muzzle flashes. The challenge was to make every element feel physically grounded and seamlessly integrated into the live-action footage, while maintaining visual consistency across complex day-for-night conversions and intense action sequences that heighten the story's suspense.
