Miami-based 2C Media was recently tapped by Nat Geo WILD to produce Florida Untamed, the latest installment of the network’s Destination Wild series. Based in South Florida, 2C Media was a natural choice to take on the project, which involved a year of extensive shooting throughout the region’s remote, treacherous wilderness.

Filming in locations that spanned ancient cypress swamps to hidden, danger-filled coastlines, the crew used specially designed equipment, including a RED Epic camera that captured an array of predators, perilous invaders and sly survivors in ultra-high-speed dramatic photography. The resulting episodes depict one year in the life of creatures from two very different South Florida habitats.

“After a decade in Florida, getting this up-close and personal with some of the region’s deadliest and most fascinating wildlife was eye-opening even for us,” said 2C Media co-president Carla Kaufman Sloan. “We’re looking forward to sharing these rare insights with Nat Geo WILD’s viewers through this new, captivating special.”

Florida Untamed premieres April 27.

Motion capture systems developer Vicon is previewing a futuristic new “Mobile Mocap” technology at SIGGRAPH 2011 in Vancouver. Moving mocap out of the lab and into the field, Vicon's Mobile Mocap system taps several new technologies, many years in the making. At the heart of Mobile Mocap is a very small lipstick-sized camera that enables less obtrusive, more accurate facial animation data. The new cameras capture 720p (1280X720) footage at 60 frames per second. In addition, a powerful processing unit synchronizes, stores, and wirelessly transmits the data, all in a tiny wearable design.
