Pre-Production Services
Appropriately administrate focused convergence through orthogonal e-tailers. Collaboratively actualize next-generation benefits vis-a-vis.
1.
Visual Planning and Design
Set the stage for your production with robust visual planning tools that bring ideas to life before cameras roll. From pre-visualization (pre-vis) and storyboarding to detailed shot list creation, filmmakers can develop rough 3D animations to map out complex shots, camera angles, and lens profiles with precision. These tools not only streamline planning but also allow for instant, printable storyboards and metadata-rich shot lists to keep productions on track. Complementing this process is concept art and 3D visualization, enabling the digital creation of environments, props, and characters that define the project’s aesthetic before construction or shooting even begins.
2.
Virtual Environment and Set Development
Step into immersive virtual environments with tools that bring your creative vision into sharp focus. Virtual Reality (VR) scouting and planning allow filmmakers to explore and refine digital locations or sets in real-time, making adjustments long before physical production begins. Virtual set design takes this a step further, constructing fully interactive 3D models of environments that can be tested and refined to perfection. For large-scale scenes, virtual crowd simulation generates realistic digital extras, adding depth and realism to your project without the need for extensive casting or logistics.
3.
Performance and Animation Preparation
Prepare for seamless on-set execution with advanced performance and animation tools that bridge the gap between live action and digital worlds. Real-time technical pre-visualization enables teams to evaluate the feasibility of equipment setups, camera tracking, and lighting configurations before filming, reducing costly errors. Motion capture and performance capture planning ensure live actor performances are flawlessly recorded and integrated into digital characters. Finally, virtual character animation breathes life into your project, combining performance capture data with advanced animation techniques to create dynamic and engaging on-screen personas.
