Final Destination 5

Posted by on Aug 20, 2011 in Blog | 0 comments

A movie I recently worked on came out last weekend. That movie is Final Destination 5. I worked on it over at Prime Focus from February to the end of June.

Prime Focus was responsible for the epic bridge collapse sequence in the movie. A lot of hard work went into the sequence, and it featured a lot of gory deaths :)

I was responsible for the digital doubles on the bridge, both background and hero characters. I also wrote some tools for the project including a motion capture importer/mapper, and a tool to help match move easily make adjustments along the camera’s axis, while not changing how it appears to the camera, when stereoscope issues arose.

If you haven’t seen the movie yet, consider checking it out. You pretty much know what you’re going to get from a Final Destination movie, but this installation is a lot of fun, not as predictable with how the deaths play out, and quite funny!
