BABELSBERG

Babelsberg is the title of an exercise that I used as an example to gradually introduce my students to the conception of a production design for a fictitious SciFi film sequence, with the aim of training creative skills from the first sketch to a finished hybrid film.

 

DMP and Compositing

This is the final sequence that I developed as an example for the students. This wasn't about perfectly worked out shots, but rather demonstrating various VFX matte painting workflows.

Virtual Production

In order to explore the advantages and disadvantages of classic VFX compared to new virtual production techniques, I converted the scenery into a real-time virtual environment, which we tested in cooperation with the Babelsberg-based Halostage Studio.
