A golden experience
Overview
A gripping continuation of the true story behind one of the biggest heists in history. As stolen gold spreads across borders, so does the investigation, pulling criminals, police, and entire systems into a web of money laundering, power, and ambition.
Firstly, we did cleanups to make it look like the 90s. Since everything was shot in Tenerife, even though parts of the show are set in Tortola, we removed modern elements, extra people, and logos that shouldn’t be there, and adjusted the landscape to resemble the smooth hills of Tortola. We also did plenty of sky replacements to ensure it always looked beautiful and sunny.
We added muzzle flashes and bullet hits for the classic chase sequences when they go after the bad guys. The two biggest sequences included a CG helicopter flying over a mountain in a hidden quarry, dropping money far below. We cleaned up the terrain to make it look deserted and added the CG helicopter along with the falling money.
The biggest sequence was an airport scene that took place at different times of the day, one during a heavy rainstorm at night and another at sunrise with a beautiful background of the sun coming up. This was set in America, so we created a large 360° DMP of the airport and surrounding landscape scene. We then did the same for the daytime shot, where we see airplanes and a classic American landscape in the background.
