Digital MultiCam Reel EFX Digital Camera Effects
 |
These are short clips generated from raw images taken with Digital MultiCam. Digital MultiCam is a unique Special effects camera array used to generate special rotating freeze frame and slo-motion effects. The system consists of 150 Canon EOS 30D digital cameras networked to control boxes to handle virtualy unlimited types of firing sequences. Client laptops are used to focus the cameras and collect the images and send them to a Server Computer where shots can be put together for emmdiate preview and output as quicktimes in as litle as a few minutes. Comonly known examples of the type of effects generated with a still camera array are such as Multicam is the Matrix freeze frame shots or the amazing explosion in Swordfish. As lead Engineer of Reel EFX, Inc.’s R&D Departmant, my first project was designing the control system for Digital MultiCam.

We focus to increase the efficiencies of CGI & VFX processes simply by having a couple of words in pre-production design phase. We do this either by participating and giving advice in storyboard & videoboard phases or by on-set VFX supervision during production.
We try to develop a two-fold VFX business using both digital competencies - compositing, matte painting, motion graphics, animation and also production capabilities - such as on set VFX supervision previsualization and management of Motion Control (MILO) with the VFX studio that MILO is being kept in.
Visual FX Design & Supervision
Makina’s VFX knowhow comes from its founders who has worked in Sinefekt for over 10 years as cgi artists. Makina aims to create a new service line as VFX supervision and decrease inefficiencies in post-production.
Motion Graphics Design
We have an inhouse capability of 2D animations and an outsource team of 3D animators. We aim to create quality movies that will be told as examples in directors’ community.
Motion Control & VFX Studio
Makina & Sinefekt together operates the first Motion Control (MILO) in Turkey. MILO is a camera robot that can accurately perform & repeat the movement that is commanded by the operator endless times. MILO is kept in a 350 m2 green-box shooting studio with dimensions of 6m x 14m x 25mt.
