Title:
- Saving Private Ryan
Company / Institution / Agency:
- Industrial Light & Magic
Description:
ILM was called on to recreate Omaha Beach on the third day after the Allied Forces’ D-Day invasion. Motion-control passes of the empty beach were composited with motion-control pass-es of thousands of soldiers. Hundreds of computer-generated period ships were animated and rendered. A combination of CG, digital matte, and proprietary Sabre system techniques were used to complete the “story-telling” shot.
