Evil Has Always Had a Name: BTS

Overview

Inside the Synapse virtual art department work on Framestore Pictures' Resident Evil short film. Rich Lee and Louise Baker Lee shot the whole piece in Unreal Engine first, using MetaHumans, motion capture and a virtual camera rig, and that previs became the production bible for a two day shoot. Synapse's scope was previs and environment build; Framestore Pictures produced the film and it was not shot on a Synapse stage.
