Design and characters
The Exterior of the IMAX Camera faithfully recreates the sleek and distinctive design of the real thing. From the iconic IMAX logo to the intricate details of the camera body, every aspect of this model is crafted with precision and care. But the excitement doesn’t stop there. Open up the camera to reveal a film set inside. From lighting rigs to a director’s chair with a camera on a dolly, every element of movie production is represented in this immersive interior. Set the scene for your next blockbuster with this versatile and dynamic playset. Characters included are an award-winning film director and a dramatic actor! KolaHasAwoken notes that the characters and events depicted in this set are fictitious. Any similarity to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events, is purely coincidental. However, we would call them Christopher Nolan and Hoyte van Hoytema. Here are more pictures of the project:
