Digital Skin GraftingThe technique behind Super Star Rajini's European complexion in the film 'Sivaji - The Boss' (Style Song)
this is done by visual effects company "Indian Artists"
About the Film:
In this film, director Shanker wanted to change Rajini's wheatish complexion to a white European complexion. As a visual effects company (Indian Artists) this was a challenging task for Indian Artists because nobody has executed this type of concept in the world.
The Technique behind Dark skin to fair skin:
To begin with, Indian artists did an in-depth study of the European complexion. they found that white skin reflects more light and has less shadow when compared to dark skin and is translucent in some areas. Therefore a simple color correction of the hero's skin would not achieve the desired effect.
For the shoot a London based young white lady with a fresh complexion and flushed cheeks was chosen and with the help of Cinematographer Mr.K.V.Anand every single shot of the hero was repeated with her because lighting conditions change in every shot. After the final edit all the 630 hero shots and 630 girl shots were scanned in 4K resolution. Each of the 9000 scanned frames ware rotoscoped to separate the body parts (face, hands, legs etc.). The white lady's skin was mapped onto the Super Star's image using Eyeon "Digital Fusion" software. Thus the Super Star got his glowing white complexion. Thank to the "Rising Sun Research" people for providing Cine Space Plug-in to get the perfect film look
