ENGLISH SYNOPSIS :

THE GREATEST ADVANTAGE OF VIRTUAL PRODUCTION IS THAT BY FILMING IN A STUDIO WITH DIFFERENT BACKGROUNDS ON A LARGE LED DISPLAY, WE CAN SHOOT IN A SAME STUDIO WITHOUT MANY LOCATION SHOOTS IN DIFFERENT PLACES AS IT WON’T BE AFFECTED BY TRAVEL TIME OR SUN PATH.
AS A PROJECT THAT MAXIMIZES THIS ADVANTAGE, WE PRODUCED A DOCUMENTARY MOVIE THAT FOLLOWS JOE ODAGIRI, WHO IS WELL KNOWN AS A JAPANESE ACTOR AND A FILM DIRECTOR.

ENGLISH CONTEXT EXPLANATION :

VIRTUAL PRODUCTION IS THE CORE VIDEO TECHNOLOGY OF THE METAVERSE PRODUCTION PROJECT.
THIS VIRTUAL PRODUCTION IS A TECHNOLOGY THAT ENABLE TO CREATE IMAGES THAT LOOK AS IF THEY WERE SHOT IN THE ACTUAL LOCATION.
THE BACKGROUND IS CREATED USING 3DCG, PROJECTED ON A LARGE LED DISPLAY, AND SYNCHRONIZED WITH A CAMERA IN THE STUDIO TO SHOOT IN REAL TIME.
THIS YEAR IS SAID TO BE THE FIRST YEAR OF VIRTUAL PRODUCTION IN JAPAN; VIRTUAL STUDIOS STARTED TO OPEN IN JAPAN AND THE NUMBER OF WORKS PRODUCED USING THIS TECHNOLOGY IS GRADUALLY INCREASING.
OUR MISSION IS TO RAISE AWARENESS AND SPREAD THE USE OF VIRTUAL PRODUCTION BY PRODUCING A PROMOTIONAL MOVIE THAT MAXIMIZES THE APPEAL OF THIS TECHNOLOGY AND IMPRESSES THE JAPANESE VIDEO INDUSTRY THAT THIS WILL BE ONE OF OPTION FOR VIDEO PRODUCTION.
