Visual Effects Supervisor and Creative Director.
Ryan Tudhope was recently Visual Effects Supervisor on Top Gun: Maverick and The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.
Over his 25+ year career, Ryan has provided creative leadership to more than fifty feature films and premiere episodic content. He takes special interest in the convergence of live-action stunts and visual effects; sophisticated and invisible work born from collaborations with directors, cinematographers, and physical departments. He combines this appreciation for “the real thing” with a deep understanding of digital effects, and strives for results that are grounded, persuasive, and award-winning.
Ryan is also an entrepreneur, having co-founded the visual effects studio Atomic Fiction. As CEO, he led the company’s growth to over 350 employees, where he oversaw projects such as Ad Astra, Blade Runner 2049, Deadpool, Pirates of the Caribbean, Ghost in the Shell, Game of Thrones, Star Trek Beyond, and Cosmos, which earned him an Emmy nomination. Atomic Fiction was acquired by Deluxe in 2018.
Before Atomic Fiction, his supervisor credits included Hellboy, Sin City, and Superman Returns, among others. He started his career at Lucasfilm’s Skywalker Ranch at the age of 18, working directly with George Lucas to design key sequences for Star Wars: Episode One.
He is a member of the Television Academy and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
