In challenging economic times and with increasingly sophisticated audiences, narrative filmmakers are seeking more efficient ways to produce higher quality products. Surprisingly, the solution for many has come from the virtual production world provided by computer animation. 3D previsualization is a collaborative process that enables filmmakers to explore light-weight, easily-modifiable versions of shots, sequences, or entire films. From creative exploration to technical problem solving, previs enhances visual communication and enables creators to optimize their entire workflow from pre-production through post-production, regardless of whether their final medium is live-action, stop-motion animation, or full CG. Join us for this overview of the powerful paradigm of previsualization and witness the shape of things to come.
