Behind the Scenes of ABARTHWasteland by Platige Image and Alessandro Pacciani

Do you want to know how we did Abarth Wasteland (DC)?

It wasn't a typical job for Platige Image. The team usually post-produces raw green screen footage, but with Abarth they were given a finished, fully edited live action movie. “I asked myself: what are we even supposed to do here? After a call with the director, I realized the scope of his vision,” recalls VFX supervisor Piotr Borowski. The project was realized by Platige Image for Fiat, the owner of Abarth, which is a company producing modified racing versions of the Italian manufacturer's vehicles.

The task proved unusual. Not only was the commercial shot on location and without any green screen elements, but also its original premise was pretty much nothing like the dir cut envisioned by the famous car commercial director Alessandro Pacciani.
