Virtual Production

Sony Pictures: Bullet Train

Sony Picture’s ‘Bullet Train’ uses trailblazing virtual production technology to digitally generate the set around the actors.

1,015 shots were delivered with virtual production and VFX, using LED wall technology and virtual content to recreate Tokyo, while Japan was in the throes of lockdown and international travel.

“We’re excited at how it turned out. You feel like you’re in Tokyo, on a train, and you’re moving through this crazy world, and it’s a really fun ride.”
