This morning I found this article about the various effects work done on prince of persia, there is a breakdown of the roles of the different post production houses.
Nice little quote about the work I was directly involved in with Cinesite, the sequence involving the poisoning of King Sharaman, its from Sue Rowe, who was the Visual effect supervisor here at Cinesite:
"We cast two youth doubles who stood in straight after the take with the original actors so we could take high-res digital stills in the same lighting conditions. We added darkened eye lashes and thickened hair, and removed wrinkles and age spots. These were then tracked onto the actors’ skin using our in-house software Motion Analyser, which basically sticks the new skin on top of the old skin - like a digital skin graft.” A similar approach was used for the death of King Sharaman (Ronald Pickup), who is poisoned by snake venom, using a combination of 3D veins and skin graft, with smoke done in Maya Fluids"
