There was also a delivery of various CG elements such as the Stark Industries bathysphere, motorbikes, the Hydra tank, digital doubles and the signature &#8216;cube&#8217;. A lot of CG effects work such as energy lasers, explosions, fire, smoke, snow, and water &#8211; including a sequence involving Captain America chasing a mini submarine in the murky water of New York harbour &#8211; were part of a varied, complex package of work completed by Fuel, starting with the opening sequence.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/firedbydesign.com\/fbdimg\/2011\/08\/img_151.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6849 lazyload\" title=\"img_15\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/firedbydesign.com\/fbdimg\/2011\/08\/img_151.jpg?resize=600%2C248&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"248\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/firedbydesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/img_151.jpg?w=600&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/firedbydesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/img_151.jpg?resize=520%2C215&amp;ssl=1 520w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 600px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 600\/248;\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>A fully CG opening shot of headlights resolving out of a blizzard introduces the audience to an Arctic excavation site where scientists have discovered a huge aircraft buried in the ice.

A few laser effects and face replacements later and the scientific team has entered the aircraft and found a certain shield frozen in the ice.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/firedbydesign.com\/fbdimg\/2011\/08\/img_14.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6854 lazyload\" title=\"img_14\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/firedbydesign.com\/fbdimg\/2011\/08\/img_14.jpg?resize=600%2C248&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"248\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/firedbydesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/img_14.jpg?w=600&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/firedbydesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/img_14.jpg?resize=520%2C215&amp;ssl=1 520w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 600px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 600\/248;\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The largest of the sequences undertaken by Fuel was a James Bond-style motorcycle chase where an enemy is pursuing Captain America as he heads towards the Hydra base.

A detailed CG build of iron doors embedded into mountain rock was required for the shot when the hero uses his motorbike as an explosive to blast a hole in the doors and glimpse the cavern beyond. This build was later re-used when the Allied commandoes storm the Hydra base &#8211; much of that action created from many layers of separate elements of extras, vehicles and explosions.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/firedbydesign.com\/fbdimg\/2011\/08\/img_191.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6848 lazyload\" title=\"img_19\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/firedbydesign.com\/fbdimg\/2011\/08\/img_191.jpg?resize=600%2C248&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"248\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/firedbydesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/img_191.jpg?w=600&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/firedbydesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/img_191.jpg?resize=520%2C215&amp;ssl=1 520w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 600px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 600\/248;\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Another challenge was the underwater chase, where Captain America swims at a super-human pace to catch the character of Heinz Kruger in his one-man submarine.
