The goal of the EC-funded IST project ORIGAMI was the development of advanced tools and new production techniques for high-quality and seamless integration of real and virtual content in film and TV productions. In particular, the project focused on pre-production tools for automatic virtual set creation through image-based 3-D modelling of environments and objects. One key goal of the project was to achieve real-time in-studio pre-visualisation of the virtual elements (objects and actors) of the extended set. In this contribution the studio pre-visualisation system that has been developed for the project is illustrated, and its usage within a high-end film and TV production environment is described. Furthermore an overview of the developed solutions for automatic generation of 3-D models of environments, static objects and (moving) actors is given.
