The Théâtre du Jeu de Paume is an 18th-century Italian-style theatre in the heart of Aix-en-Provence, known for its richly ornamented interior.

For this project, Boreal created an ultra-detailed immersive 3D experience focused on one thing: revealing craftsmanship that’s easy to miss in real life.

In a single day of shooting, we used DSLR cameras with high-precision zoom and a mixed capture approach to reconstruct extremely fine reliefs, especially across the intricate ceiling, and to faithfully capture complex reflective elements like the glass chandelier, a notoriously challenging material for 3D.

Ultra-fine ceiling details captured in 3D — gilded reliefs and sculpted masks revealed with precision zoom.
