backgrounds can respond to camera movement with accurate parallax.
The result is completed visual effects shots on production that the entire crew can see with perfectly matched lighting and camera movements, minimizing or at least reducing reshoots and months of post-production.
VP (virtual production) has also enabled content owners/creators to take advantage of reliable, more economic 8K camera technology and cloud-based workflow which are becoming the foundation for meeting unbending project deadlines.
With many restrictions lifted, projects like Netflix recently released The Gray Man were produced with a judicious use of VP and location production shot with multiple 8K camera rigs.
Tom Coughlin, of Coughlin Associates, noted that content creators are using the highest quality digital cameras at the highest resolution possible to future proof their projects.
Even when the film or show will not be delivered in 8K, they want to capture it in the highest quality, highest resolution possible.
Resolution, the number of pixels per image, provide finer image detail and more immersive content.
To further future proof their work, production teams are using high-performance cameras, whether it’s REDs or Blackmagic URSA cameras at the highest frame rate possible, including 60fps to 120fps.
