Our First Time with Virtual Production | What We Learned

When we got the opportunity to shoot the LS 600c Pro commercial in front of an LED video wall using Unreal Engine, we didn't know where to start. We knew that we wanted to transport ourselves into very different environments like neon Tokyo and a forest that could be lit for broad daylight and nightfall. We didn't have any prior experience with virtual production, but we grounded ourselves with what was available and techniques that we've known for years of cinematography and lighting. You'll see all of that come into play and more, as DP Justin Jones and Cinepacks Studios owner Andy Chen walk through the scene and how it was all set up in the studio.

This was super insightful! Cinepacks has been killing it, and it's awesome to see what goes behind virtual production. It was also helpful being left with a few tips like thinking about what's past the LED wall, and using lights to extend it. Thanks for posting this! 🔥
