Car Scene Setup at Igelkott Studios – IMAGO
In this IMAGO feature, projection effects producer Eric Hasso shares how Igelkott Studios has perfected studio-based car scenes.
Using a combination of one-lens 360° plates, projection-based virtual production, and Barco projection workflows, the Stockholm facility offers filmmakers cinematic realism without the challenges of location shooting.
The article traces the evolution of car scene production, from early rear projection to today’s projection-based virtual production. Igelkott Studios delivers high-resolution, photometrically accurate plates processed into multiple viewports for rapid camera setup changes. The Barco-based system allows for full creative lighting control, realistic motion, and minimal downtime between takes, giving actors and crew the ability to stay in the moment.
“I’m aiming for cinematic, not photorealistic, and together with the DoP, we can create the story of driving a car without the limitations of location shooting.” / Eric Hasso
