TV Film “Little Wenzhou”

The character bets his life on a dice-roll. As such, the dice needed to take a very precise route in this shot: pass very close to the camera while growing in an exaggerated way.
The shot was made without dice. We modeled the dice and created the animation of their movement so that they are consistent with the scene but at the same time also had a little bit of magic

TV Film “Tropiques amers” (Bitter Tropics)

Series of 6 52-minute episodes on the abolition of slavery in the West Indies. All boats appearing at sea were created in 3D then added to the actual scenes.
All shots having been taken with a hand-held camera, it was necessary to reconstruct the shots through tracking. Replicas of the boats of the time were modeled and textured. We have then reconstructed lighting on the site in 3D to be able to insert the boats into the scene.
Broadcast on FRANCE 3 in 2007.
