@@JackieWelles to assume that videogames necessarily require technological advances is to limit their discursive and narrative capacity, what actually drives the technological movement are the laws and trends of the market, in a few words: capitalism.

This stuff is the best. Especially for the performers. Being able to see the world in realtime vs a green/blue screen really helps them get into and interact as if they are in the environment. The performance level just goes up for them. And for the directors they get to see their vision in real time instead of just post. Post is now pre. Love it.

It's a step forward but unless you already have all the 3D assets pre made and ready for the pre production you are still going to be suffering that technical debt to make those assets. At least with Quixel Megascans and Metahuman they will be able to use stand in assets for the preview stage and get the kinks out before they start hairing away at asset production.

Imagine been inside a cylindrical dome where you can walk on the spot. The walls are high reflective projection screens and behind you at all times is a drone equipped with one of these cameras with eye tracking that projects wherever you are looking. As close to a holodeck as we will get for now.,

The only missing component is making this environment as bright as daylight, I.e the screens, this way you would capture actual lens artifacts that were affected by the screen

So the system is rendering only the computed backdrop to the camera? But with a subject in shot doesn’t that mean there are reflections from the out-of-shot background that won’t be accurate? And can the background handle multiple cameras capturing the scene at the same time?
