'Nine Studio' Tracking Marker Setup

Tracking markers on set play a crucial role in the Matchmove process, serving as the primary medium connecting real and virtual spaces. At 75mm Studio, we perform marker setup during our On-set operations, and we are introducing a setup case study at 'Nine Studio' horizontal studio.

Usually, when setting up markers on set, they are placed at regular intervals or in specific patterns. However, due to the large scale of the walls, the placement often relies solely on the worker's perception of distance. This results in irregular point positions, making it difficult for Matchmove artists to locate precise points in shots with narrow angles of view.

To improve this issue, 75mm Studio has introduced laser level equipment to optimize on-set setup for Matchmove work.

By utilizing laser lines provided by the leveler, the vertical and horizontal intervals between points are kept consistent. This creates a standard rule for the Matchmove process, thereby boosting efficiency. Furthermore, after the marker setup is complete, we utilize LIDAR equipment and DSLR cameras to secure spatial scan data including high-quality textures.
