How This Cool Photogrammetry Trick Changes 3D Scanning

In our final video from our visit to Spectral Motion, Adam steps into the studio's 3D scanning department to learn how they employ a novel technique for scanning actors and performers to create digital models as the basis for their prosthetics and creature effects work. David Antalek performs a photogrammetry scan on Adam using just a single camera shot at an incredible speed. Let's take a look at the resulting scan and print the model!
