Alpha Flight is part of a new breed of theme park ride called ‘flying theatre’. Working closely with LA company Super 78, Digitalkraft produced a non-stop four and half minute ride through outer space across unknown galaxies and visiting unknown planets.
The trip starts aboard the ISS Stephen Hawking and takes the viewer through a whirlwind of wormholes to Saturn, the forest planet of Zyphor, the sand planet of Hellion, the frozen ice planet of G’Fronen and the volcanic planet of Vulkanor.
Each planetary scene was rendered out in a spherical 180 degrees at a resolution of over 4000 pixels, creating a truly immersive experience for the audience.
Digitalkraft’s VFX Supervisor Ivan Pribićević said “This is a major achievement for the company both creatively and technically. We benefited from working closely with our friends at Super 78, Brent and Steve, to make this happen. We achieved a lot and learned a lot, and look forward to the next one.”
