Remember those beautiful landscapes Baby Yoda played in? You can thank ILM and the tech behind Fornite for those. Here's how they did it: (From 2020) StarWarsDay
Indeed. Working with Epic Games, the studio behind the Unreal Engine , along with Bluff at ILM and cinematographer Greig Fraser, who had done a lot of work shooting LED screens on, and other tech companies like video card maker Nvidia, Favreau and his team at Golem Creations developed a new virtual production platform that allows filmmakers to generate digital backdrops in real time, right in front of the camera.
Even though Favreau achieved what he'd set out to do, not everyone was convinced he could in the beginning. At the time, there was skepticism that the technology was good enough to do photo-real backgrounds, but "we pushed forward anyway," Favreau says. His hope was that he would be able to get a few shots for the first season and then improve the tech as the show went on.
Here’s how it works. Imagine the scene at the cantina on Tatooine. The bounty hunter is there, there’s a generalvibe. But only a chunk of it is real. The booth is there, and some of the actors, but the rest is just being rendered on a 20-foot-tall, 270-degree semicircular LED video wall. It’s like a traditional Hollywood backdrop, except this one uses’s game engine to place 28 million pixels' worth of characters and objects exactly where they need to be for the camera to capture them.
If that sounds like a lot, it is. Fortunately for the filmmakers behind the Disney+ show, a lot of the groundwork was already in place. The StageCraft platform works by allowing filmmakers to do a lot of their pre-visualization and shot blocking ahead of time in virtual reality, something Favreau had done with.
