A VISION FOR COMPUTER VISION:
WHAT MAKES A PRODUCTION
RENDERER IN 2016
 INVITED CONTENT
Computer vision is a rapidly evolving
discipline. It includes methods for acquiring,
processing, and understanding still
images and video to model, replicate, and
sometimes, exceed human vision and
perform useful tasks.
As the technology develops, computer
vision will be commonly used for a broad
range of services in upcoming devices and
implemented in movies, smart phones,
cameras, drones, and more. Demand for
the technology is driving the evolution
of image sensors, mobile processors,
operating systems, application software,
and device form factors in order to meet the
needs of applications and services that will
benefit from computer vision.
Panelists

Many systems call themselves “production
renderers”. Some are relatively unknown.
Others are well known, high-quality
renderers. And many large studios have
invested significant time and money to
develop their own proprietary renderers.
This panel explores the technical and
non-technical issues involved in introducing
a renderer into the contemporary production
environment, and maintaining it as the
technology evolves. Topics include: the
capabilities that are absolutely necessary
(and those that are not), the importance of
technological and creative control, team
size and composition, how utilization of
open-source components has affected
development, and the potential disruption
of new research results on the development
process. The session includes panelists
who are creating the state of the art in
advanced renderer development.

THE MAKING OF “PEARL”, A GOOGLE
SPOTLIGHT STORY
“Pearl” is a Spotlight Story directed by
Oscar-winning animator Patrick Osborne.
Conceived from the beginning as a 360º
experience, “Pearl” takes place entirely in
a car and explores the gifts we inherit from
our parents, both tangible and intangible.
The challenge: create a 360º interactive
animated film with a strongly art-directed,
highly stylized non-photorealistic look,
with naturalistic character animation tightly
synchronized with an original song, and a
story that collapses decades into minutes
through montage, and make it run on a wide
range of devices, from mobile phones to VR
headgear, in real time.

“KUBO AND THE TWO STRINGS”:
ONE GIANT SKELETON, ONE
COLOSSAL UNDERTAKING
THE MAKING OF MARVEL’S
“CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR”
In “Captain America: Civil War”, Steve
Rogers leads the newly formed team of
Avengers in their continued efforts to
safeguard humanity. But after another
incident involving the Avengers results in
collateral damage, political pressure mounts
to install a system of accountability, headed
by a governing body to oversee and direct
the team. The new status quo fractures
the Avengers, resulting in two camps, one
led by Steve Rogers and his desire for the
Avengers to remain free to defend humanity
without government interference, and the
other following Tony Stark’s surprising
decision to support government oversight
and accountability. Marvel Studios, ILM,
Rise FX, and Method Studios show
attendees how they created some of the
movie’s most heart-stopping moments.
For “Kubo and the Two Strings”, (in theaters
19 August), LAIKA launched an immensely
powerful puppet – to scale. The result:
a giant (18-foot) skeleton with a 24-foot
wingspan from finger to finger. With realworld materials including dense CNC foam,
paper, paint, and a steel armature, the
Giant Skeleton was a massive undertaking,
involving LAIKA's notoriously interdependent
and collaborative crew. And when the
puppet was finished, the challenges began.

Wednesday, 27 July, 3:45-5:15 pm
Digital Domain worked on the three
main aspects of “Deadpool”: Colossus,
Deadpool interacting with Colossus, and the
Helicarrier. Creation of Colossus required
five different actors: a motion-capture
actor, a taller actor on the principle shoot,
a voice-over actor, fa ace model, and a
Mova/facial-capture actor. The team used a
proprietary real-time system to capture the
facial movement of one actor and redirect
to the Colossus character with perfect 1:1
geometry of usable data. They created the
digi-double of Deadpool that was usable
by all vendors on the project. And they
created the Helicarrier; which is similar to
Marvel’s X-Men carrier, but a bit more rustic
looking in this anti-hero film. Blur Studio
created the film’s opening title sequence,
provided previsualization for several action
sequences, delivered an additional 37 VFX
shots for two key scenes, and made the
low-fi animated end titles. Blur also provided
previsualization for the main car chase, the
subsequent bullet-counting sequence, and
the final fight scene. Previsualization was
critical for staging the flow of each scene
and determining which shots would work
best in advance. One of the main tasks
in Blur’s 37 VFX shots was integrating a
fully CG version of a damaged Colossus,
building on Digital Domain’s “clean”
Colossus model. Blur developed an identical
clean Colossus, which required extensive
full-body and facial motion capture, and
incorporated heat damage, scrapes, and
other flaws.

CHARACTERS AND WORLD
OF “ZOOTOPIA”
The world of “Zootopia” is a vast, multiscale, multi-climate city that represents the
biomes of the tundra, desert, rainforest,
and grasslands. It is also a place where
humans never existed and animals have
evolved to be anthropomorphic, clothed,
city-dwellers. Walt Disney Animation Studios
pushed the artistic boundaries of all aspects
of the production process to create vastly
different environments filled with hundreds
of unique and detailed characters. The scale
difference of the animals, from a mouse to
giraffe (95:1), required creation of a world
that could be inhabited by characters of all
shapes and sizes while depicting thousands
of furred and clothed animals.
