As a lifelong movie buff with a keen eye for innovation and a penchant for the unconventional, I can’t help but be excited about the strides Fireframe Studios is making in the virtual production realm. Having spent years immersed in the digital world through my stint at Supercell, it’s heartening to see this Finnish powerhouse leveraging real-time technologies for storytelling.
Finland’s Fireframe Studios has boarded upcoming Arctic thriller “The Ice.”
This production was jointly created with Nordisk Film Production. It is inspired by the popular novel penned by Norwegian author John Kåre Raake, who is also known for creating films such as “The Wave” and “The Quake,” as well as the series “The Fortress.
Filming is scheduled for next year.
The narrative unfolds in one of Earth’s harshest environments, the North Pole. Here, the team refers to the icy terrain as a “thrilling attraction” for adventure enthusiasts, blending intellectual intrigue with complex political struggles. Additionally, it promises both chilling excitement and heartwarming human stories.
Fireframe’s founder and CEO, Mikko Kodisoja, stated that this project would be perfect for co-production as a significant portion of the movie depends on virtual production, an area where Fireframe excels.
Jumping right into the action, I utilize real-time technologies to delve into creative realms swiftly, tackling problems head-on whether it’s setting up virtual camera angles or resolving technical hurdles before filming. This proactive approach allows me to anticipate potential issues and minimize the uncertainties that typically plague traditional filmmaking.
As a passionate cinephile, I’ve often pondered: “How on earth do they film at the North Pole? It seems to call for an enormous budget, making virtual production the ideal solution.” In essence, we can produce a substantial portion of these scenes right here in our very own studio.
Currently, the film “Fireframe,” set within “A Rare Grand Alignment” directed by Cinqué Lee and soon to be screened at AFM in November, will also feature underwater sequences and introduce the monster known as the “Kraken.” This production is another project from Nordisk Film, distributed by TrustNordisk.
In this chilling monster movie, a marine biologist is delving into research at a fish farm nestled in a tranquil rural village near the fjord. Not long after, she begins to experience peculiar incidents and the gruesome demise of two teenagers. The film is directed by Pål Øie, who has previously worked on “The Tunnel”.
According to Kallunki, the key to having a successful studio isn’t just about building one, but rather how it’s managed. Many people opt for pre-made tools, which may result in less than ideal outcomes. However, we have constructed everything ourselves and have experts who have been working with LED projections for a decade. Their expertise is what sets us apart.
At the heart of Fireframe’s mission as a virtual production studio, co-producer, and financier lies the ambition to make a significant impact on the virtual production sector by fostering an environment that encourages inclusivity – essentially, making high-quality virtual production accessible not just for large-scale productions, but also for smaller and medium-sized ones.
Currently, we’re recognized as ‘the go-to spot’ for it in the Nordic region. We’re also in discussions with American film production studios now.
Currently, as I’m typing this, Fireframe is nearing completion on “the Nordic region’s largest fixed green screen studio,” a project that includes a camera tracking system and a suspension system for stunt setups.
Kallunki stated that regarding collaborative productions, we’re open to providing financing when necessary. The budget ranges for the projects we’re currently discussing vary from 3 million to 40 million euros. However, most of our internal intellectual properties in development and pre-production are within the 10 million to 25 million euro range.
