Alice in Wonderland, in 3D!!!

Well, I suppose its safe to talk about now. Last month we finally wrapped up on a four month long project. As the title suggests I was involved in the post production of Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland. We did the 3D stereo conversion on over a hundred shots in the film. For my part, I was lead Match mover (camera tracking)at the studio I work for. It involves taking the raw footage shot on set, and matching the physical camera movement to create an exportable virtual camera. The 3D cameras I created were then sent to Sony pictures (they did all the CGI). Sony was waiting to get the shots match moved so they could start doing the CGI on their end. No preassure right? Basically, I was the first guy in the VFX pipeline. Match move is not my main CGI skill, but one I know pretty well. One of my shots made it into the trailer, if only for a half second.
