Foundry Special Event Panel Discussion | Building Real-Time tools at the Core of Pipelines
Tuesday, April 27th | 8am PDT 4pm BST
As part of RTC’s Building Pipelines for Virtual Production stream, this panel explores how VP reimagines pipelines and breaks down silos between specialists. In virtual production, “fix it in post” now becomes “fix it pre”, and post-production specialists now work alongside directors and the virtual art department. But challenges remain, such as bridging the vast amounts of metadata collected from in-camera VFX all the way into post-production. What does the future hold with higher LED screen resolutions, digital humans, and the application of machine learning? Join us as we discuss and debate the nuances of real-world virtual production pipelines, with a lively panel discussion about how this fast-evolving technique continues to evolve.
