OMG's Vicon works with Audiomotion Studios on World War Z

- WWZ, starring Brad Pitt, breaks Motion Capture records -

- Europe's Largest Ever Motion Capture Volume created for the recently released blockbuster -

OMG plc, (LSE: OMG), the technology group providing image understanding products for the entertainment, defence, life science and engineering industries, announces that its Vicon division worked with Audiomotion Studios ("Audiomotion"), the leading motion capture provider for movies and videogames, on the recently released film, World War Z ("WWZ"), from Paramount Pictures.

Audiomotion deployed 160 of its Vicon cameras on location at Shepperton Studios, creating one of the world's largest ever motion capture stages. Certainly the largest ever created in Europe. The 50' x 85' volume was used to capture hundreds of stunt moves which were later transformed by The Moving Picture Company ("MPC") and Cinesite into thousands of zombies.

Starring Brad Pitt and directed by Marc Forster, "World War Z" revolves around an ex-United Nations investigator Gerry Lane (Pitt), who traverses the world in a race against time to stop a pandemic that is toppling armies and governments and threatening to decimate humanity itself. The film also stars Mireille Enos and James Badge Dale.

Mick Morris, Managing Director at Audiomotion Studios states: "Once the vast motion capture volume was in place, we set to work capturing the performance of the stunt crew, meeting the creative vision of the fluidity of the infected hordes. Filling streets and alleys, swarming over vehicles, climbing and falling like a mass of insects. We then delivered the assets to MPC and Cinesite for the teams there to work their magic. The final shots look absolutely amazing."

VFX Producer Robin Saxen said, "World War Z required us to have humans move in an unnatural way. Mick and his team at Audiomotion helped us to compile a series of actions that allowed us to create that signature Z motion. It was a real pleasure to work with Audiomotion on World War Z."

Adam Davis, Global Head of Crowd Simulation at MPC states: "Audiomotion was involved right from the beginning of the show, from early pre-production motion studies and test shoots, through to organizing the main shoot which was the largest capture volume that we have ever worked in.For some of the moves on World War Z, we needed so much space that we ended up hiring out one of the largest stages at Shepperton Studios, where Audiomotion set up its systems using a significant number of cameras and creating a very impressive volume. The shoot itself turned out to be just as successful as we had hoped for, the volume was large enough to encompass the moves we needed, and the shoot went as smoothly as many of the sessions we have executed in the past."

Audiomotion's work on World War Z is the latest in a long line of world class motion capture for major movie projects, including the Narnia series, the Titans series, Harry Potter series, Golden Compass, The Watchmen and Gladiator. Audiomotion's ongoing work in pushing the art of motion capture forward is helping to maintain the UK as an essential hub in the special effects industry.
