      The ballroom dance scene was one of the most complicated shots for VFX to execute.

      Hero puppet performance was captured over green screen. The ballroom environment was captured in a separate camera pass.

      CG characters were added to fill out the ballroom and make the party feel more crowded.

      CG dancers were added and had to integrate with the practical puppets as they danced in between the circles of dancers.
      Motion capture of professional dancers was re-targeted to our cast of CG characters and carefully choreographed to match up with the hero performances.
