What I was trying to say (and admittedly it wasn’t worded right) was that it was “inspired” by the virtual cinematography system as used in Avatar…. that may have been a more appropriate thing to write. Mea culpa, and I apologize for any offense the wording may have caused.

only used it only for a handful of previz shots though it seemed to work fine. The virtual camera we used on Avatar was Giant’s motion capture in conjunction with Glen Derry’s video pipeline ….
