MAKINARIUM S.R.L. Integrated Special and Visual Effects INNOVATIVE Visual Perception VISUAL DEVELOPMENT Techniques and Research, and Production of hybrid systems The Art of Visual Illusion for THE CINEMA

Special Effects The term Special Effects indicates artistic Special Effects creations of incredible manufacturing tech- niques which reproduce very closely the reality through this artistic work. Visual Effects The vision of Makinarium, the conception itself of the visual effects for a movie involve the Virtual Reality Visual Effects broadest mix of techniques possible. Virtual Reality Makinarium is costantly looking for new ideas and stimuli to merge computer graphics with programming in a single innovative product VR.

Makinarium is founded mainly on its activity in the development of the techniques of Special and Visual Effects. As a Factory brings together under one brand the best homegrown and European talents from various areas – visual perception, digital post-production, 2D and 3D animation, animatronics, mechanical effects, special make-up and hyperrealism, Specialized in the development of inte- grated physical and visual special effects. It is the integration of the departments, interdisciplinary collaboration between artists and dif- ferent expertise, and its vision of the reality that is concrete and pictorial at the same time, are the hallmarks of the project. This method of work has led to the rapid development of a first integrat- ed system of special effects, pride and the success center of Makinarium, which, by combining physical effects and digital retouches, delivers lifelike creatures on the set of the film, avoiding the separate use of green screen and CGI. Makinarium aims to put for the first time under one roof the best creative talents and the most important units specialized in SFX / VFX, active in and out of the country. Makinarium 5

TEAM Makinarium in its essence is a factory, a group of artists in the first place before being the technicians. All the research of this Factory departments is aimed at integrating of invisible effects like in the creation of any great visual illusion that goes beyond the cinema itself. akinarium conveys its ultimate mission together with its most Madvanced research&development in the integration of all types of special and visual effects.

WAR WOLF FX Our vision of integrated effects akinarium stands out for its ability to manage a one stop shop for Special and Visual Effects in a unique pipeline of Integrated MEffects; this is possible thanks to constant research, development and use of new technologies such as environmental scanners, body scanners, 3D printers, VR visualization , Motion Capture, self-enlighted Green Screen and many other tools and mediums that allow us to tie together these two contstantly evolving worlds. In our team we have internationally recognized artists in the field of special effects and digital effects, architects, engineers, designers and supervisors from different departments working together, each in the other bracket with the sole objective to achieve every possible task for our clients.

n an overall analysis of our approach to the I film’s effects, we can definitely say that it is our utmost intention to use all the techniques of effects integration to complement and enhance their physical appearance as realistic as possi- ble and closer to the director’s vision. irst for the design of the Wolf Creature we can F manage the pre-visualization, animatic and more traditional scale models to complete the art work in support of the production designer’s vision. Once a maquette of the Creature is sculpted, this can also be scanned in 3D for a quick preview in its main attitudes and 3D prints in key positions. 10 Makinarium

In addition, our Green panels and blue car elec- tronics back lit allow the use in actual interior in any situation otherwise difficult to illuminate, thanks to their accurate adjustment of frequency and brightness in your room or in the monitor.

This is why we propose the general guideline and then a frame by frame analysis with hybrid techniques of SFX + VFX.

his becomes especially important for us to im- T plement the scanning system structured light with a specific “Makinarium” Traking device in order to perform an identical CGI Copy. Using it even in limited portions as digital levels on the physical creature would have more con- trol of the final result and a large room for improve- ment during Post for the details of acting, hyperreal- ist aesthetic finishing cancellation and replacement of cables, movement supports sticks. The same Digital double would then be used as a true copy in full CGI for long shots, and remote wide shots with greater fluency than the physical original. Makinarium 13

INTEGRATED EFFECTS The realisation of the prosthesis suitable for a very realistic cinematographic quality, begins from the study of the composition of silicon, often encapsulated vinyl or mono-components of our conception. 14 Makinarium

uch of Makinarium’s work will focus in the M integration of the special make-up, the ani- matronics and Visual FX for any process or dynamic ac- tions of toring of bodies, on the wolf, as well as on objects or armor. With the same digital custom collimation’s tech- niques we can replace the suit and makeup Green chroma portions, with other portions of scanned Body Props and videos taken in the laboratory to obtain absences of anatomical and physical parts or fluid.
