VFX Breakdown - Points Phone Guard



Extensive pre-visualisation was the key to this spot for Points Phone Guard. The agent was filmed on a green screen in six separate poses at various distances to camera, then composited together to appear as if the poses were in the same space. The three backgrounds were made up of elements from different photographs, brought into Photoshop for additional clean-up. Camera shake was tracked from live-action handheld footage onto the scenes. The 3D phone was animated in Cinema 4D by Joe Surachet. Final passes for lighting details, 2D shadows, motion blur and colour correction helped seal the illusion.
