DVD: a sample of this virtual, interactive, and realistic menu. Sue-Ling Braun hired us to work on "4x4," which needed a DVD that would pitch the film's concept to investors. The menu required live actors to interact with a 3D virtual SUV environment. Transitions between menu pages required on-set panoramic photography, interaction videography, blue screen videography, panoramic photo stitching, 3D textures with still and video elements, animated camera moves, and compositing. Needless to say, we went a little overboard on this one. http://www.ghostlightdigital.com/portfolio/4x4/dvd/ipod/4x4-dvd-ipod.m4v Mon, 24 Oct 2005 12:00:00 PDT 3:09 clean ghostlight, productions, digital, codeglia, DVD, special effects, visual effects, 3D, vfx, Sue-Ling Braun, 4x4 Ghostlight Productions Visual Effect: a 3D title added to a handheld shot.

Visual Effect: replacing an actor's eyes with scary ones. Jon Huybrecht directed "Harvest," about revenge from beyond the grave. We helped Jon add some extra horror with a few visual effects that would have been impossible to get in-camera. This happy fellow is undead, so he needed scarier eyes. Since the crew didn't have creepy contact lenses, we found photos of infected human and cow eyes and used Photoshop and After Effects to replace them digitally. Each new eye had to be animated to match the actor's head movement, as well as cut out to be placed underneath his eyelids. Note: this video has gross eyes in it. http://www.ghostlightdigital.com/portfolio/harvest/eyes/ipod/harvest-eyes-ipod.m4v Thu, 24 Aug 2006 12:00:00 PDT 1:03 clean ghostlight, productions, digital, codeglia, graphics, special effects, visual effects, vfx, compositing, fx, rotoscoping, Harvest, eyes, Jon Huybrecht Ghostlight Productions Visual Effects: 3D fireflies added to a scene.

We didn't just want little yellow dots floating around, so Dave Codeglia modeled a 3D firefly with fully functional wings, torso, and antennae. Some shots have over one hundred insects flying around.

For this train shot, the original plan was to cut between shots of the main character standing on the tracks and shots of the train approaching. We suggested adding a CG train to a shot that wasn't intended to be a special effect. There were no reference photos taken of the train or location, and the shot was handheld. We tinkered around for a while and here's what we came up with.
