In this exciting session, our speakers will first focus on the production point of view and reveal how they created 3D backgrounds in Blender and combined them with live captured images. After that we will dive deeper into color grading and finishing workflow, highlighting the main reasons for deploying the ACES pipeline, how they fully exploit Mistika Boutique's DI functionality to grade 3D media and share their experience with live color grading in the VR headset.
