Simon Devault Makes His Move Back to the Creative Front as VFX Supervisor


We are delighted to announce that Simon Devault is back as VFX supervisor at FOLKS Montréal! 

After three years leading the studio, Simon made the decision to leave his role as Head of Studio, choosing to go back full-time as a VFX supervisor and return to the front line of image creation. 

Under his leadership, the Montreal studio had the opportunity to work on renowned projects such as The Umbrella Academy, Spy Kids, Bad Boys, and many more.  

Simon’s ability to tackle recent challenges with professionalism and empathy has made a lasting impact on our team, and we're grateful for his support, kindness, and of course, his legendary hockey references that always kept the team in high spirits.
