Gramercy Park Studios Takes Flight through the Louvre Museum
“…Because we were going to build the ceiling of the second room entirely in CGI, Aviv Yaron joined us and conducted a special photoshoot of the ceiling with panoramic equipment, including a panoramic head. Yaron is one of the most experienced VFX/CGI photographers I’ve ever met and works with his own gear…The images here show all of the calibrated cameras and the resulting 3D mesh, and a textured version. It’s not the final version, but it gives a clear idea of the quality we were able to get from the excellent photos that Aviv had taken….”

Russian roulette: Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit
‘…Plates that would form views looking out from inside the glass windows were gathered by Johnson and visual effects photographer Aviv Yaron. Together they scouted various Moscow rooftops and vantage points for suitable angles…
“One of the places we shot from,” adds Johnson, “was a bizarre oligarch’s restaurant on one of the towers in the area which was a glassed-in fancy restaurant. In fact, we had to wait for some Russian billionaires to finish their dinner at two in the morning before we could go in there and photograph. I do spend an awful lot of time on rooftops. Aviv and I were going to do a coffee-table book of ‘panoramas from rooftops around the world.’”…’

Into The Woods
Sample and Hold (http://www.sampleandhold.co.uk/) and Aviv Yaron Ltd. have collaborated on ‘Into The Woods’ to further refine the procedure of scanning and texture shooting for Digital Doubles. We have reduced the time we spent with the principle actors/actresses to 15min-20min, whilst improving the coherency of the shoot and scan data. This, hopefully, will also support a better efficiency during Post-production too.
