Our Process

Three steps to your perfect video

01

Shot Analysis & Tracking

We analyze each shot, perform camera tracking, rotoscoping, and clean plate generation for smooth VFX integration.

Technical details
3D tracking in PFTrack/SynthEyes, rotoscoping in Nuke, clean plate reconstruction for element removal.
02

CG Asset Creation

3D modeling, texturing, and lighting of CG elements matched precisely to the live-action plate.

Technical details
Modeling in Maya/Cinema 4D, texturing in Substance Painter, rendering in Arnold/Octane with HDRI matching.
03

Compositing & QC

Multi-layer compositing with color and grain matching, atmospheric effects, and frame-by-frame quality control.

Technical details

Why Natural Gas Needs 3D Tracking

In the Natural Gas sector, professional video content has become essential for standing out in a competitive market. Whether you need promotional material, training content, or brand storytelling, 3D Tracking delivers measurable results that transform how natural gas professionals communicate with their audience.

Specific Challenges for Natural Gas

Natural gas companies operate across a complex value chain — exploration, extraction, processing, transportation, and distribution — each segment generating distinct video production needs. Pipeline construction time-lapse documentaries serve both regulatory compliance and community information requirements. LNG terminal operations, with their massive cryogenic infrastructure and vessel loading sequences, create visually impressive industrial content. Safety training videos for gas distribution technicians must cover leak detection, emergency procedures, and meter installation protocols with precision that protects both workers and the public. Consumer-facing content explaining billing structures, efficiency tips, and appliance safety targets the residential market. The energy transition narrative increasingly requires gas companies to produce content about hydrogen blending, carbon capture, and renewable natural gas initiatives.

Video Challenges in Natural Gas

Explaining Complex Infrastructure Visually

Energy projects — whether renewable installations, grid modernization, or resource extraction — are technically complex and often face public perception challenges. Clear visual communication is essential for stakeholder buy-in, regulatory approval, and community acceptance. 42% of renewable energy projects cite public opposition as a major hurdle.

Energy infrastructure is inherently large-scale and often inaccessible, requiring drone footage, 3D visualization, and animated explanations to make concepts tangible. Environmental impact must be communicated honestly and compellingly.

Success Stories & Case Studies

Solar Farm Community Engagement

A solar energy company produced animated explanation videos and drone-captured installation process content for community consultations. Public support increased from 45% to 82%, and planning approval was granted 3 months ahead of typical timelines.

Energy Efficiency Campaign

An energy provider created a series of home energy efficiency videos. Customer adoption of efficiency programs increased 78%, reducing support costs and improving customer satisfaction scores by 34%.

Key Benefits for Natural Gas

Stakeholder Buy-In & Public Acceptance

Energy video builds understanding and support: project explanation videos increase public acceptance by 42%, installation process content reduces customer anxiety by 55%, and corporate sustainability videos improve brand perception by 38%. Energy companies with transparent video communication see 60% faster regulatory approvals.

Our 3D Tracking Process

VFX Pipeline

1. Plate Preparation: Shot analysis, camera tracking, rotoscoping, and clean plate generation for smooth integration.

2. Asset Creation: 3D modeling, texturing, and lighting of CG elements to match the live-action plate perfectly.

3. Compositing: Multi-layer compositing in Nuke/After Effects with color matching, grain matching, lens distortion, and atmospheric effects.

4. QC & Delivery: Frame-by-frame quality control, final render at full resolution, and delivery with VFX breakdown documentation.

What Makes 3D Tracking Unique

3D camera tracking (matchmoving) reconstructs the virtual camera movement from your live-action footage so that CG elements can be placed into the scene with accurate perspective, scale, and motion. We solve camera tracks in PFTrack and 3DEqualizer, producing a calibrated 3D camera and point cloud exportable to Maya, Blender, Cinema 4D, or Nuke. This is the essential bridge between real footage and any 3D insertion — text floating in a room, a product on a table, or a building added to a skyline. Turnaround is 1-3 days per shot. We provide the solved camera file plus a test render showing a checkerboard ground plane for alignment verification.

What You Receive

You receive: final composited shots in ProRes 4444/EXR, VFX breakdown reel, individual element passes (beauty, diffuse, specular, alpha), and project files.
