House of the Dragon Season 2 work with PXO on virtual production marked a breakthrough in the art of the scenes about dragon riding. Integrating real-time visualization with advanced motion control and Unreal Engine, the team made seamless, immersive sequences transport the viewer to the skies of Westeros. Buck rigging to give realistic motion of riders and BoltX camera robots for dynamic angles, meant every shot had the power of being visually stunning.
The use of LED wall technology provided interactive lighting and synchronized environments, allowing real-time creative adjustments on set. Such an adaptable approach streamlined the workflow while also fostering close collaboration with directors, DOPs, and VFX supervisors to ensure artistic visions were achieved with precision.
The result is a series of breathtaking scenes that blend technical innovation with storytelling, showcasing PXO’s expertise in delivering visually stunning and efficient production solutions for House of the Dragon.
