The director and producer ofShe-Hulk, Kat Coiro, and head writer Jessica Gao responded to both criticism of the Marvel show’s VFX controversy and the recent rumors that Marvel has a bad relationship with the VFX artists they employ. Critics have been pointing out that VFX artists are feeling overworked by the studio for a while now.
She-Hulk Director Responds to VFX Criticism
Previously, ever since Marvel dropped the first teasers of,She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, fans have been less than enthusiastic about the show’s CGI. Kat Coiro finally responded to the criticism last month by saying,“I think a lot of the reactions have to do with the fact that she is so different than anything we’ve seen.”And further added:
“We stand in solidarity with what they say. The truth is we work with them, but we’re not behind the scenes on these long nights and days. So, if they’re feeling the pressure, we stand with them and we listen to them.”

Later, an anonymous VFX artist also responded by stating:
“I was working seven days a week, averaging 64 hours a week on a good week. Marvel genuinely works you hard. I’ve had co-workers sit next to me, break down, and start crying. I’ve had people having anxiety attacks on the phone.”
Criticism of theShe-Hulkis one of many recent issues Marvel Studios has faced regarding the studio’s VFX. Marvel is reportedly putting quite a bit of demand on the VFX artists who work on their projects. With the studio producing a lot of projects, it has been increasing and many viewers have noted a decline in the quality of the visual effects.
