Syflex in "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince"

In the sixth film of the Harry Potter series, Syflex was used in many shots.
For instance, The Moving Picture Company used it for the cloth simulation of digital doubles in the Quidditch mach, to move three different fabrics in the team uniforms.
MPC has more on his website, and CGW has a full article in their August issue.

  Our cloth simulator was used in The Golden Compass, Spider Man 3, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, The Silver Surfer, Pirates of the Caribbean, King Kong, Superman, Batman Begins, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, among other notable feature films.

  SyFlex was used in numerous other projects, animated TV shows, commercials, game cinematics and short films (check out our news page to get a quick overview). Our clients used it to simulate cloth, hair, flesh, skin, ropes, sails, ghosts and even water. Some of the projects are reviewed in detail in our gallery pages.

  Designed by Steven Stahlberg, Sylene wears only SyFlex. We have two demo clips showing off how nice and easy it is to animate a dress, a pair of pants and a blouse. House of Moves provided the motion capture and we rendered Sylene dances in two different outfits. The simulation ran at 4 seconds per frame in both cases and none of the 1150 frames in this animation required any modification.
