Future Directions in LED Lighting Reproduction | Keynote and Q&A #VirtualProduction
11:15 am PST | 2:15 pm EST | 7:15 pm BST | 8:15 pm CST | 6:15 am NZT (Tues.)
Virtual Production sure hit a new milestone with real-time game engine technology and immersive LED screens, instead of the good old green screen. In fact, almost 50% of The Mandalorian was actually filmed using vast LED screens at a Los Angeles studio, enabling many final shots to be achieved ‘in-camera’ with no extra visual effects necessary.
And when it comes to lighting innovations with challenges such as simulating the sun, or shadows… Paul Debevec, Adjunct Research Professor at the USC Institute for Creative Technologies, is THE field expert. He will be sharing the latest innovations in making LED Lighting Reproduction the most powerful virtual production tool it can be.+ Join us also for our “The New Normal” panel discussion where industry experts will discuss how to address the current climate and what studios, producers and companies could do to combat this in the future by making the most of real time technology.
