PRG: This is the Way: Our Journey Navigating Real-Time Pre-Viz on Set

PRG: This is the Way: Our Journey Navigating Real-Time Pre-Viz on Set

Join us Tuesday 6/27 at 1:30pm pst in the B2 Theatre for a panel with PRG delving into a journey filled with unique challenges and remarkable solutions. We’ll take you on an adventure where we blend the magic of live action and CG content, no matter the environment or gear (just like our favorite bounty hunter). Our path involves the seamless integration of camera tracking, Unreal Engine, and cutting-edge servers, all working in harmony. With the skill of a Jedi, we achieve faster and more precise set-ups, as if guided by the Force itself. During our presentation we will have panelists discussing different aspects in Virtual Production, do a live demo on stage and leave time for an in depth Q&A. What’s different about shooting traditional versus virtual productions? Blending the magic of live action and CG content, no matter the environment or gear. Capture in 3D space so the background of the set can be changed while the camera movement and all the visual distortions of that action are maintained.
