virtual production
Virtual production is a filmmaking technique that combines live-action footage with computer-generated imagery (CGI) in real-time. It often uses advanced technologies like LED screens, motion capture, and video game engines to create immersive environments. Filmmakers can see the virtual backgrounds and effects while filming, allowing for greater creativity and efficiency. This approach enhances storytelling by enabling realistic settings without needing to be physically present in those locations, making it a powerful tool in modern cinema and television. It’s especially popular in projects like "The Mandalorian," where blending real and digital elements creates stunning visuals.
