Nova Zembla - Stereoscopic Feature Effects

Posted in News by Joe in November 2011

Eyeworks asked Hectic to do some serious Stereoscopic effects and beautiful titles for their film Nova Zembla.

Nova Zembla is the first 3D film to come from the Dutch film industry. Director/producer Reinout Oerlemans (“Komt een vrouw bij de doctor”) has instinctively steered the creative process with a confident hand, enabling the team to excel in a wide range of challenges, from beautiful titles to a myriad of demanding individual shots.

The titles are truly a master artwork, transitioning the live action shots of the leading stars into an etched, canvas composition, inspired by Jan Luyken’s 16th Century engravings of Nova Zembla.

We were privileged to work on the opening sequence, a one minute epic piece, immersing the audience in a stereoscopic universe full of stars and wonder, drawing them deeper into the 3D.

Reconstruction HecticElectric

Posted in News by Joe in February 2011

After the AVP reconstruction, we are now focussing on HecticElectric’s needs. Central to this is the fact that media is now exchanged in digital file formats.

In response HecticEletric will go completely tapeless and reconsiders space and equipment appropriately. The colour correction facility, for example, now has a bigger role within Hectic, and therefore grading will be moved to the former VTR/support room by the end of May.
