Man of Steel (2013)

Visual Effects: MPC


Director: Zack Snyder

Compositing technical direction + Envirocam technical direction.

 


The Envirocam pipeline was developed to create virtual background plates of the photographed location with synthetic camera moves to seamlessly splice together with real shots. It was a virtual environment in Nuke rebuilt from on-set photography projected on to LiDAR-derived geometry.
