Nobody’s Ever Made VFX This Way (New Tech) #vfx #digital #digitaleffect

In this video I'm demonstrating a new way to film visual effects - using Lightcraft Jetset, an Xgrids Lidar Scanner, Blender, and Nuke, along with some very talented artists.

Although Simulcam has been done in the past, it was not available as a consumer product, or easily portable. This video demonstrates an in-the-field final result you can produce by leveraging this system.
