MR. X founder Dennis Berardi shares, “MR. X was built on the belief that great visual effects are more than technology, they are storytelling at its most ambitious. This relaunch is about reclaiming our independence and putting artists back at the center of everything we do.” #MrX #VFX

MR. X @mrxfx.bsky.social · Aug 27

The secret's out. MR. X is BACK.

With over 60 original MR. X artists reunited and more than 100 artists strong, we're thrilled to announce the return of MR. X—stronger, sharper, and more creatively driven than ever.
