Description:


    BUF was in charge of defining the appropriate methods, technical choices, and organization for the 3D portion of “Arthur and the Invisibles.”

    While the research-and-development department run by Xavier Bec didn’t develop anything specifically for this film, our engineers have, for the past 20 years, been working on develop-ing innovative software. Our method of video motion capture allowed a live-action director to direct an animated movie while directing actors and moving the camera around.
