Grant: Applied Research and Development Grants - Level 1
Sheridan Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning
$25,000.00
Virtual Production Facilitation Initiative
EF 2020-21
Résumé
Using Monogram's modular, PC peripheral devices Sheridan's Screen Industries Research and Training Centre (SIRT) will explore the development of improved Virtual Production toolsets to make it easier and more familiar for traditional cinematographers and film crew to use emerging real-time 3D software to create movies and video of all forms. Monogram's tactile, mechanical inputs provide a straightforward interface when compared with on screen navigation using a keyboard and mouse. With specialists in the emerging field of Virtual Production, the team at SIRT will develop meaningful integrations and layouts of Monogram modules aimed at increasing efficiency and ease of production workflows. These findings will be released for others to use, expand and build upon, broadening the capability and competence of non-technical personnel in the field, and enriching the Monogram community. As Virtual Production continues to grow as the most effective way to create screen-based media these toolsets give an edge to Canadian creators, facilitating accessibility and a wider reach of applied experimentation with new technology and workflows.
