At the heart of every Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) motion tracking project over the past 25+ years lies a core technology that helps push the boundaries of VFX: Vicon motion tracking systems. It’s no exaggeration to say that the collaboration between ILM and Vicon has helped redefine the extent of virtual production imagination.
One of Vicon’s most recent motion capture projects with ILM was for the hit Star Wars TV series: The Mandalorian. The Mandalorian virtual production was one of the most challenging and ambitious projects we have worked on to date.
Following the Emmy Award-winning season one, the latest season of The Mandalorian pushes the thrilling ride for fans to new heights thanks to ILM’s ground-breaking StageCraft technology, which combined with Vicon systems achieves a giant leap forward in motion tracking filming techniques.
