Commenting on the event, Robert Godinho, Managing Director, Media.Monks India, said, “Media.Monks India is the only studio with published films that have been shot on Virtual Production in our very own state-of-the-art studio. We are the market leaders in this technology and we know what it takes to create content in it. The Open House is aimed to equip participants with the skills and knowledge required to explore this technique which will be part of the future of filmmaking. It is in collaboration with Unreal Engine, the creators of the software for Virtual Production.”
Virtual Production is the future of filmmaking, combining physical and virtual filmmaking techniques to create cutting-edge media. For virtual production, teams use a real-time 3D engine (Unreal Engine) to create photorealistic digital assets and then display them on large LED walls combined with a physical set using the real-time rendering capabilities of game engines. The cameras are synced with motion trackers for enhanced realism and depth of perspective.
The full-day event will be a deep-dive learning experience for decoding Virtual Production. Industry experts and veterans will share tips and tricks to achieve magical light, personalized realistic virtual sets, Quicker turnaround between shots, hassle-free shoots in locations where permissions are impossible/expensive to obtain, immersive lighting, clean plates, and cost-efficient shoots. During the session, the attendees will get a behind-the-scenes look at the workflow of Virtual Production, from scripting to pre-vis to the production pipeline.
Industry-leading directors, cinematographers, and production houses are expected to attend the Media.Monks India open house. RSVP now to get your invite.
