MR Fisher - Test Film

We wanted to explore the possibilities of using a green Lycra suit to generate an artificial intelligence character on film. The idea was that the character was part hologram, and was somehow unable to reconstitute himself fully. We shot the live plate

This is the first part of our explorative process in realizing this character, and we are very excited to develop it further. More posts to follow.


And here are a couple images from our production diary:

Brainwheel Pictures Shooting - Week 1

Hi everyone. I'm very sorry for the silence these last couple months. Settling in was not as straightforward as we would have liked, but now we're settled in, and our studio is set up. We've very graciously been given an upstairs floor to work in. As long as we don't get in the way of the owners of the building, we're allowed to use the space for whatever we need.

At this stage, we have some photos of a special effects test we did last Saturday, where we did facial capture, keying and tracking elements for a digital effects test. Aside from the camera and the tools we already had, we did this effects test for about $15. Please take a look.













More updates will be posted soon. We're going to try and keep it as regular as possible this time.
