Hired by Asylum FX to work on >Master & Commander<, which was nominated for an Academy Award in Visual Effects, the Team around Lead Visual Effects Artist Gunther Schatz created highly realistic simulations of sails and rigging of tall ships. To recreate the characteristic motion of stiff sail fabric, the team used MAYA Cloth software.
