This was done by some swedish FX house. Although it looks like the
same
technique that was used for the Matrix movies, it was in fact a
MILO, a
10-axis motion control rig, that took the images. They rooms were also
recreated in 3D, as each image has been heavily edited in Inferno
(all the
ceilings had to be added, many of the flying objects, stuff like
that) I
would have to look up who did it, I am sure they are happy to tell
you more.
I was shown this project last year by a Sydney client who wanted to
do something similar for a fly-around of a car. I spoke about dolly-
tracks and grips and serious camera and computer-time, but all they
imagined it would take was placing a camera on a tripod and moving it
around.
Me: "Yeah, you could do that, but the results would wobble because
the camera alignments would be messed up for each shot."
Them: "No, that's no good."
Me: "Well then, we need to spend money hiring motion picture
equipment and shoot animation quality stop-frame."
Them: "No, we don't have anywhere near the budget for that. I don't
understand why we can't just put a DSLR onto a tripod, take a shot,
move it a bit, take another..."
