TOKYO, Sept. 23 -- PRNewswire/ AsiaNet
Warner Bros. Pictures offers exciting new footage from the highly
anticipated November 2004 release, THE POLAR EXPRESS.
The Academy Award-winning team of Tom Hanks and director Robert Zemeckis
reunite for an inspiring adventure based on the beloved children's book by
Chris Van Allsburg.
When a doubting young boy takes an extraordinary train ride to the North
Pole, he embarks on a journey of self-discovery that shows, the wonder of life
never fades for those who believe.
Sony Pictures Imageworks senior visual effects supervisors Ken Ralston,
(five-time Oscar winner), and Jerome Chen, (2000 nominee), help bring this
enchanting holiday story to life in full CG animation through Imageworks'
next-generation motion capture process. Dubbed "performance capture," this
innovative technique allows the actors' live-action performances to drive the
emotions and movements of the digital characters.
