This shot included a landing Quinjet, but also required a full ceiling replacement build and background cleanup. Cleanup and roto of the character were done in Nuke. The hole and outer buildings were matte-painted and geo was built in Nuke to projec
Original plate showing stand-in boxes for the Quinjet and the ceiling without any holes.
This close-up follows soon after the shot above.  We see the Quinjet in detail, both inside and outside.  This shot required background cleanup to remove the pole, then received 3 main quinjet elements; the interior passes, the exterior pa
