Shooting air-to-air is not an easy task, unless you stay on the ground! For many shots, we developed a digital sky-model with 3D and 2D-clouds for perfect integration of the green-screen footage. We adjusted the real camera movement and built the plane partly in 3D for a seamless match of real and digital elements.
For Hector's notes which he writes down in his notebook, Peter Chelsom put great trust in our design department. We created lots of amusing and interesting, animated doodles.
While Hector travels through South Africa, he encounters many wild animals - most of whom were placed digitally, such as elephants, giraffes, antelopes, and more.
