Percy Jackson & The Olympians S2
Percy Jackson returns to Camp Half-Blood one year later to find his world turned upside down. His friendship with Annabeth is changing, he learns he has a cyclops for a brother, Grover has gone missing, and camp is under siege from the forces of Kronos. Percy’s journey to set things right will take him off the map and into the deadly Sea of Monsters, where a secret fate awaits the son of Poseidon.

All aboard the Andromeda! For Percy Jackson S2 ILP delivered 145 shots across multiple sequences and episodes mainly set out at sea on the massive 300m cruise ship "Andromeda".
ILP designed and built the huge asset based on real world references and modified the stern and bow to allow for a seamless integration of the two main set builds. All shots filmed on these backlot blue screen sets were then augmented with CG ship and ocean environment extensions plus full sky replacements. In addition we also created several full CG establishing shots that feature complex water simulation work around the ship and its trail. A crowd of more than 5000 digital characters dancing, swimming and enjoying the sun on deck helped us bring the ship to life.
The second large scale environment we designed features the Ironclad, a steam propelled American Civil War ship that Clarisse captains to lead a crew of undead Zombies into the "Sea of Monsters". Again this work involved set extensions of the ship studio set build itself and then integrating this into a moody open ocean environment including water interaction simulations around the travelling ship.
