cineSync provides visual communication in Twilight

Wednesday, 26 November 2008

For the newly released film version of teen sensation Twilight, Los Angeles based VFX Supervisor Richard Kidd coordinated 350 VFX shots across 4 vendors in 3 cities, using cineSync.

Lead vendor was long time cineSync user, Canadian based CIS Vancouver, with additional work by San Francisco's Industrial Light and Magic, L.A.'s Rez Illusion and Kidd's own Catalyst Media.

"We used it with all the vendors - even the ones in L.A. - to communicate very quickly and go over all the different shots specifically."
