The model was reconstructed from 781 images.
Cinematographer and Photogrammetry Artist Azad Balabanian has managed to create a 3D version of the 1924 mausoleum of Eugene Tripet and Alexandra Tripet-Skrypitzine located in France. The mausoleum was created using RealityCapture, a photogrammetry software for creating 3D models out of photographs or laser scans. According to the artist, the images were captured with a Sony A7R II and a drone DJI Mavic 2 Pro. In total, Azad made 781 images to reconstruct the building in Reality Capture. The final model has 100k Triangles and more than 52k Vertices.
"Just for context, although most people in VFX/games view photogrammetry as a way to create .pbr assets, my approach is focused on volumetric photography. Capturing the scene with specific IRL lighting was very much the goal (rather than an error)," noted the artist.
