CGI Kon Tiki VFX Breakdown / Making of Kon Tiki Vfx by Arne Kaupang. Featured on http://www.cgmeetup.net/ <br /><br />Watch Complete VFX Breakdown Reel Kon Tiki by Arne Kaupang. <br />Arne Kaupang - VFX Breakdown Reel, I have put together with a lot of the digital effects created for the Norwegian movie Kon-Tiki, directed by Espen Sandberg and Joachim Rønning.<br /><br />I was the VFX & Animation Supervisor on the movie, and managed and supervised all the VFX and creature/animal animation on the show.<br /><br />Kon-Tiki is the true story about the legendary explorer Thor Heyerdahl and his crew on their epic crossing of the Pacific on a balsa wood raft in 1947. A 20 million dollar movie shot in six different countries around the world.<br /><br />A VFX crew of about 150 people split between six different Scandinavian studios worked on 500+ shots. Crabs, birds, fish, whale sharks, white sharks, deep sea creatures and a lot of complex water simulations.<br /><br />The movie was released in Norway in August 2012, and has been the biggest box office success of any movie ever released here. In 9 weeks more than 840 000 people of Norway's population of 5 million has seen the movie in the theatres (!) which is pretty insane. It was a huge success at the Toronto Film Festival in September and is due for worldwide release during the first half of 2013.<br /><br />VFX credits:<br />Gimpville (Norway)<br />Storm Studios (Norway)<br />Fido (Sweden)<br />Important Looking Pirates (Sweden)<br />Blink Studios (Norway) <br />Storyline Studios (Norway) (online VFX) www.akdesign.no<br /><br />SUBSCRIBE to CGMeetup for more inspiring content! http://bit.ly/Sub2CGMeetup<br />Watch More VFX Breakdowns, Making Of & Behind The Scenes: http://bit.ly/2Gep3t8<br /><br />About VFX Breakdowns, Making Of & Behind The Scenes: <br />Ever wondered how studios and artists do what they do?
