Autodesk Vision Series | Through the Lens of History: Rodeo FX on 'Masters of the Air'
DescriptionJoin Rodeo FX as they delve into the acclaimed series 'Masters of the Air'. Led by VFX Supervisor, Patrick David, this session offers a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the meticulous craft of recreating historical authenticity.
Set against the backdrop of World War II, 'Masters of the Air' demanded a level of attention to detail that went beyond traditional storytelling. On the ground, Rodeo FX recreated three different prisoner of war camps and populated them with thousands of digital soldiers. In the sky, the team also created a fully computer-generated sequence sending 'Red Tails' P40 warhawks on a bombing mission. Each frame became deeply rooted in research and extensive reference - the VFX process becoming a careful blend of history, technology, storytelling and artistic vision.
