Large-Scale Robotic Sculpture for Film Artistry

Shared by Elka Studios
This post highlights the creation of a full-size historical statue featured in the film “Grow,” combining digital artistry and advanced robotics. The process began with high-resolution 3D scanning of the subject in costume to capture detailed features, followed by digital post-processing and rescaling.

Robot Milling in Artistic Fabrication
Multiple images and videos illustrate a six-axis industrial robot arm using rotary milling tools to transform large polystyrene foam blocks into intricate sculptural forms. Each step, from rough blocking to precise surface finishing, demonstrates how ENCY Robot supports complex robot milling workflows for sculpture and props in film production and the arts.

Integration of Digital and Physical Craft
The workflow merges digital sculpting, CNC foam machining, and hands-on art, resulting in a striking installation that impressed local audiences and industry experts alike. ENCY Robot facilitated automated, reliable shaping, enabling efficient production under demanding creative timelines.
