   ELIA POPOV – JEM FX – CREATING A NEW STANDARD IN STUNT AND ADVERTISING CAR TECHNOLOGY!

FEATURE INTERVIEW

This weeks interview is with previous guest, Elia Popov from J.E.M. FX to discuss an amazing piece of movie car engineering they’ve created; The Blackbird CGI Platform Vehicle. It is, in effect, an automotive CGI stuntman. It has an adjustable wheelbase, track width, and can be driven as a STUNT vehicle despite all of that. When CGI is added over the top, it can literally become any car you can think of….and looks quite real. In my opinion, this vehicle is something custom car builders will be taking lessons from for the next 20 years!

If Elia’s name is familiar to you, it should be. In podcast 231 Elia talked about his work on the General Lee Chargers in the 2005 Dukes of Hazzard movie. While flying Generals may be one claim to fame, he and his company J.E.M. FX have featured work in many well known movies. As a result, the Blackbird is the next step of advertising vehicle evolution.
