Description:
“Hollow Man” was an ambitious and unusual project founded on creation of a detailed and functioning digital human. We examined this human from the inside out. Our challenge was simple in description: create a synthetic digital human capable of sharing the screen and replicating the performance of his human counterpart, actor Kevin Bacon. Creating a digital Sebastian would require our synthetic human to do everything Kevin could as well as stand in during actions that were physically impossible for Kevin (like ripping off his skin) but maintaining full interaction and performance within the film.
