MS FISHER'S MODERN MYSTERIES (Series)







Spun off from the highly popular Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries on ABC, this new series on the Seven Network makes a move from the roaring 20's to the groovy 60's in fine style.

Miss Fishers Modern Mysteries stars Geraldine Hakewill (Wanted) as Peregrine Fisher with Joel Jackson (Peter Allen: Not the boy next door) as her police counterpart and an excellent supporting cast, the series has a lot of fun with an era of Melbourne's history that was an exciting time for change for women, much like the 1930's with the original series.

Following on from our work on the original series (and upcoming feature film!), the team at Chroma provided a huge range of visual effects across the 6 part series, including location augmentation, stunt and practical enhancement, CG integration and many production design and editorial solutions.
