Hey y’all! I wanted to share this article with you, it's an analysis of Ahsoka's real-time environment design process. This is purely educational, addressing many of the questions I get at events. I think it’s a great resource for both seasoned pros and those just starting out in Virtual Production. This article covers everything from set design using Unreal Engine to lighting sets, and managing a virtual art department. I didn’t hold back on this one, so apologies if it’s a bit dense, and Linked-in doesn't have a table of contents! Huge thanks to Safari Sosebee for all the valuable information and help. And shout-out to all of you that worked on this! Have a fantastic Friday. #VirtualProduction #UnrealEngine #SetDesign #Lighting #ArtDepartment #FilmProduction #Ahsoka #RealTimeVFX #BehindTheScenes #Education

Hey, we’re excited to share this episode of Narwhal Deep Dives featuring Mark Austin, where he discusses his journey from a 2D animator to a visualization director. Mark shares thoughts on the differences between animating for VFX - which tends to be more isolated such as character animation, vs for previs - which tends to be full shots, as well as valuable lessons learned from collaborating with directors. Plus, he’s got some fantastic stories from his work on projects like Casper and more.

The world of virtual set design with Dallas Drapeau ?? Want to excel in virtual set design artistry? "Always think about the physical set, not just the virtual one," is one of Dallas' key points for working in a virtual art department. When designing for film, it's crucial to balance digital creativity with the real, tangible limitations of building a physical set. Whether starting with concept art or a digital set, Dallas' approach starts with understanding how these designs are meant to be translated into a physical shoot-able location. #VirtualProduction #EnvironmentDesign #VirtualSetDesign #WorldBuilding
