He was Warner Brothers’ VFX supervisor on Alfonso Cuarón's space epic, Gravity (2013), with the techniques involved in the film realized by Webber and the Framestore team, taking three years to complete.[2] David Heyman, co-producer of Gravity, hired Webber to oversee the film's visual effects work.[3]
