The Technology of Cacodelphia Studios in Scene Recreation
In Cacodelphia Studios, various car journeys were filmed simulating being in the rural areas of Argentina. There was no need to move the crew anywhere; it was comfortably filmed in our studios thanks to Virtual Production, combining the real scenario, in this case the car, with the digital environment on LED screens, adding realism and a technical quality that perfectly complemented the film's atmosphere. This gave the production team the freedom to shoot scenes ranging from simple to complex while maintaining the level of authenticity and visuals demanded by the movie.
Recognitions and Awards
“Cuando Acecha la Maldad” received international acclaim at festivals such as those in Toronto and Los Angeles. Distributed by Shudder, in addition to its success on the festival circuit, it also became a commercial phenomenon in Argentina, with over 300,000 viewers and a permanent spot in the Top 10 on Netflix.
A Milestone for Argentine Cinema
The film directed by Demián Rugna surpassed major international productions on Netflix, positioning itself as one of the most-watched movies in Argentina and reaching eighth place globally. It was a pleasure to contribute our technology to this incredible project.
