You can support our work for as little as $4.58 per month (paid annually): https://mixinglight.com/membership/ ==== I met Bryn Morrow while colour grading television commercials shot on a volume stage at Steelbridge Studio in Brisbane, Australia. Interestingly, I didn’t realize until the resizes were removed from a shot that the commercial hadn’t been shot ‘in real life’ but on a stage. Once I started looking critically, I found opportunities to enhance the scene’s realism. As this is a new and rapidly developing technology, I thoroughly enjoyed this opportunity to speak with Bryn and understand the methodology and challenges of this medium. Bryn is a VFX Supervisor based out of Queensland, Australia. His training and experience as a Cinematographer, combined with his expertise as a VFX and CG Supervisor, provides a unique insight into live-action production and VFX workflows. Some of his film credits include: - Prometheus- The Power of the Dog- Land of Bad- Captain America In this interview, Bryn discusses virtual production on a volume stage. He specifically describes the workflow and relationship between post production and colour grading, how colour grading can be incorporated into the process, and what to look for when grading virtual production. 00:00:00 Introduction And Background00:01:26 What Is A Volume?00:06:24 Creating Environments In The Volume00:13:27 Aligning The Digital And Real World00:19:19 Steel Bridge Studios And Virtual Production In Australia00:25:33 Virtual Production Adoption Challenges And Cost Structure00:28:50 Pre-Visualization And Digital Scouting00:32:02 Depth Of Field Constraints And Lens Constraints00:32:53 Collaboration With DPs00:37:42 Color Pipeline00:39:25 Challenges Of LED Panel Colour Management00:42:42 Linear Workflow00:45:53 Color Grading In Virtual Production00:50:59 Is There A Role For Colourists?00:58:15 Kalie’s Experience Grading A Volume01:00:54 What Happens In The Brain Bar01:02:32 Brain Bar: Challenges Tracking The Virtual Camera01:04:27 Brain Bar: Virtual Art Department Supervisor01:06:04 Bryn’s Interactions With The Brain Bar01:07:45 Bryn’s Background And Expertise01:14:05 Understanding Where Virtual Productions Make Sense01:16:08 The Role Of Colorists In Virtual Production01:23:30 Improvements In Panel Technology01:25:41 New Subframe Tech Generating Mattes For The Colourist01:30:26 Closing Remarks
