#ThrowbackThursday: #Pinocchio starring #TomHanks saw the light of day in 2022, but the filming process took place during the pandemic when balancing remote work and safety precautions played a crucial role in the filming process. To combat the challenges of collaborating remotely and ensuring safe, in-person working conditions, Halon created bespoke virtual cameras that could capture director Robert Zemeckis' unique filmmaking style while allowing fully remote artists to access live sessions simultaneously. Halon quickly adapted to this new movie-making process and successfully collaborated with Zemeckis to bring his vision to life. #HalonEntertainment #Halon #VFX #VisualEffects #Visualization

#ThrowbackThursday: Our work with video games extends to #KerbalSpaceProgram2, where we had an incredible time creating cinematics in 2023. Halon's Director of Visualization, Ryan McCoy says: "Crafting the Kerbal Space Program 2 trailer was a true delight. To achieve the epic inspiring space shots we immediately leveraged the Unreal engine to elevate the look development, allowing all departments to work on the scenes in unison. It was a privilege to contribute to a project that celebrates inspiration over the usual action scenes, a true love letter to space enthusiasts." #HalonEntertainment #Halon #VFX #VisualEffects #Visualization #Video Games

#ThrowbackThursday: While Halon is at the forefront of visualization within film and television, we also do cinematics and final animation. Here's some work from back in 2020 from our ongoing collaboration with Epic Games. Cinematic Director/Supervisor Grant Olin says: "Working with Epic to create their cinematics, and over the years build our world class animation and cinematics team, has really been a dream opportunity to tell short stories with incredible characters from so many universes." #HalonEntertainment #Halon #VFX #VisualEffects #Visualization #VideoGames
