Case Study: International Commercial Project
For a recent automotive commercial filmed in Beijing, we captured complex stunt driver movements that were later enhanced with CGI vehicles. The project required sophisticated technical execution and creative problem-solving:
- Simultaneous facial and full-body capture using multiple synchronized camera systems
- Real-time preview capabilities for director feedback during the shooting process
- Seamless integration with plates shot in Chengdu requiring precise geographical and temporal alignment
- Advanced data cleaning techniques to handle challenging lighting conditions and reflective surfaces
The result? A 30-second spot that won gold at the 2023 Asia-Pacific Advertising Awards, demonstrating how effective motion capture technology can elevate commercial productions to award-winning levels.
