Dongji Rescue

VES Awards 2026 nominee · Outstanding Supporting Visual Effects in a Photoreal Feature

Dongji Rescue (directed by Guan Hu, Yang Fei) shares a powerful WWII story of courage and compassion, how Dongji fishermen saved British soldiers. We’re proud to showcase how we have contributed to bringing this piece of history to the screen. 


StaticVFX team did the hero asset, the historical ship Lisbon Maru, a 140 meters ship, using 240 UDIMS for texturing, to cover the requirements for different shots. On top of that, we covered layout, set extension, crowd, animation, water simulations and compositing. A huge thanks to everyone involved for the trust and teamwork that brought these visuals to life.
