Frequently Asked Questions

  • 3D scanning is a comprehensive term that encompasses various techniques used to digitize objects or environments, creating an accurate digital twin. This includes advanced methods such as LiDAR scanning, which uses laser technology to capture detailed measurements, and photogrammetry, which constructs 3D models from photographs. Both are part of a suite of reality capture techniques we employ to bring the physical world into the digital realm for analysis, replication, or enhancement in media and entertainment projects.

  • 3D scanning provides high-resolution digital assets, real-world environments, and detailed object captures, enabling seamless CGI integration, digital doubles, and hyper-realistic visual effects.

  • Yes! We scan real-world locations using LiDAR and photogrammetry, generating CGI-ready digital backlots for virtual production, green screen compositing, and immersive filmmaking.
