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 Aviation Maintenance Needs 3D Tracking

In the Aviation Maintenance 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 aviation maintenance professionals communicate with their audience.

Specific Challenges for Aviation Maintenance

MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul) facilities perform life-critical work that demands absolute traceability. Video documentation of engine teardowns, NDT (non-destructive testing) inspections, and landing-gear overhauls serves both compliance and marketing purposes. Borescope footage of turbine blade conditions, time-lapse videos of a full engine rebuild, and technician interviews explaining torque-wrench calibration procedures showcase expertise that written reports cannot convey. These videos reach airline maintenance directors through industry platforms like MRO Network, direct sales presentations, and EASA/FAA audit preparation materials.

Video Challenges in Aviation Maintenance

Precision Documentation Meets Aspirational Storytelling

Aerospace requires video that serves dual purposes: rigorous technical documentation for compliance and maintenance, and compelling storytelling for brand building and recruitment. Safety-critical industries demand absolute accuracy in every frame.

Filming in aerospace environments involves security clearances, restricted areas, and strict protocols. Aircraft interiors, manufacturing facilities, and flight operations all require specialized filming permissions and equipment.

Success Stories & Case Studies

MRO Documentation & Certification

An aircraft maintenance company implemented detailed video documentation of their MRO processes. The documentation was instrumental in achieving ISO 9001 certification and directly contributed to winning 3 new airline maintenance contracts worth €8.5M annually.

Key Benefits for Aviation Maintenance

Compliance, Recruitment & Business Development

Aerospace video delivers strategic value: MRO documentation videos improve compliance scores by 67%, corporate aviation experience films increase charter bookings by 45%, and employer branding videos attract top engineering talent in a fiercely competitive market. Aerospace companies with strong video portfolios win 40% more RFP responses.

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.
