Set rebuilt from spherical projections on to Lidar-derived geometry. HDR source imagery was captured on-set. This was a refinement of the Envirocam work on Man of Steel at MPC. The key differential was being able to capture more dynamic range for the synthetic plates with HDR imagery made up of three bracketed exposures. This translated more accurately back to the dynamic range of the shooting camera (Arri Alexa).
