COVID-19’s Effect on Production
Technology developed for the video game industry could play a role in getting Hollywood back to work and Chicken Bone FX is in on the action.
Set Extensions As Part of Virtual Production
Virtual production (VP) uses a few robust MX and gaming technologies to facilitate the creation or augmentation of fully 3D environments to allow assets like set extensions–similar to the ones pictured here– to be rendered alternatively in real-time on set giving directors, production designers, and art directors ready access to digital toolsets.
VFX Can Do More Now Than Ever
As TV and film production resumes with new safety protocols in place, VFX capabilities such as crowd duplication to digitally create large crowds and virtual location technology to re-create set locations & backgrounds can help solve social distancing and other new production issues in the post-COVID world.
