🏆 Honorary Mention · Prix Ars Electronica 1998
Mark Stetson and Digital's “The Fifth Element” was honoured with a Honorary Mention at the Prix Ars Electronica 1998, category Computer Animation.
The Fifth Element called for many combinations of digital and practical effects techniques, frequently combined with elements from live action shooting. Miniature sets, digitally extended and enhanced, were populated with a combination of digital and model vehicles, as well as both virtual and actual actors.
