Craftbot conquers Hollywood!
Craftbot came, saw and conquered Hollywood
Craftbot made an impression at the set of Blade Runner 2049. 10 Craftbot Plus 3D printers were used in the Hollywood blockbuster to create super realistic replicant bodies by Iván Pohárnok the famous Hungarian special make-up artist who works at Filmefex Studio.
Better than traditional methods
Our 3D printers were utilized because of their ease of use and fast operation compared to the classic moulding used for full-body props seen in the movie. Instead of toiling with moulds the creators only had to create digital scans and start to print the bodies in parts.
Flexible and trustworthy
This 3D printing solution has other benefits over traditional methods. With digital techniques even last-minute changes were easier to implement. What’s more, the printers were able to work 24/7 making tight deadlines easier to meet.
Breath-taking results
Using this technique was not only simpler, but the results were great too. With the work of the creators and the precision printing of Craftbot Plus, the joints between the parts are invisible and even the spores on the “skin” can be seen. This is how superhuman bodies are made in superb quality!
Ready for the world
Craftbot Plus sure made its way to Hollywood, but it’s also ready to be put to test by the rest of the world. If you’re interested in how this looked like in the movie watch the official trailer of Blade Runner and find the 3D printed bodies in it:
