From creating photo-real environments to directing a digital cast of thousands: Image Engine helped digitally destroy one of the world’s most iconic buildings in key sequences of Roland Emmerich’s White House Down.
Image Engine supplied 95 shots in total. This included two key sequences for the movie: the ‘Takeover’ of the White House and the ‘Aftermath’. Both incorporated the White House, in its pristine and subsequently destroyed state, the surrounding environments, hard surface animation of helicopters and a digital cast of thousands.
