Road to Real-time: Virtual Production for Animated Storytelling

September 9, 2022

Virtual production combines immersive technologies such as virtual and augmented reality (VR and AR) with real-time technologies, allowing storytellers to create and compose their stories as if they existed on a film set in the real world. It allows you to capture exact camera movements, set dressings, and performances as if they had been created in physical environments. This session offers an overview of the virtual production process and the technologies required to take advantage of this production model.
