So not only did this involve Captain Marvel and her various fights, in and out of the spaceships, but ILM also handled the building of the ships, the missile attack on earth and the re-entry sequence. ILM’s work built on and dovetailed with the work Trixter had started on the Binary effect. Much of ILM’s work was in the third act of the film. Beyond their work on the Binary powers, ILM also contributed to various other effects on Captain Marvel, such as helping develop the energy effect and producing a detailed digital double of Captain Marvel.

The lead Visual Effects Supervisor at ILM was Craig Hammack.
