Flame - An Indispensable Tool for Distilled VFX

Flame - An Indispensable Tool for Distilled VFX

Customer challenge

Distilled VFX worked on a 4K multi-year TV series with a high-end client. Needing to complete over two hundred complex temp shots in only twelve days, they needed a powerful solution to deliver a polished product in a very short time frame.

Project goals

Studio executives and test audiences need to be able to get the correct feel from a scene so that the studio can then recut, reshoot, or rewrite the project without waiting weeks on a VFX company to make changes. Distilled VFX needed to deliver high-end shots quickly so that the studio could move their shows through the production pipeline and out to the audience.

Solution

In order to deliver a polished product quickly and efficiently, Distilled VFX turned to Autodesk’s Flame system. With its ability to quickly build backgrounds, correct green screen shots, fix original shot compositions, and improve the look and feel of every frame, Flame was the only solution to deliver this high-end work. Distilled VFX also used the Human Face Extraction tool for beauty work, which cut days off the delivery timeline.

Business outcome

The power of Autodesk’s Flame with the unmatched Machine Learning Tools were a game changer. They were extremely fast with repeatable results. In particular, the Human Face Extraction tool was indispensable for beauty work and saved Distilled VFX both time and money.

Conclusion

Autodesk’s Flame is a powerful tool that proved indispensable for Distilled VFX to turn around a huge amount of shots in a short amount of time. The Machine Learning Tools, including the Human Face Extraction, were particularly effective, displaying repeatable results and speeding up the turnaround time. Using Flame, Distilled VFX successfully turned around over two hundred shots in only twelve days to a very satisfied client.
