One of the panel discussions, Game of Thrones, will be set within the context of high profile, consumer content. Both sessions will take place at the Las Vegas Convention Center.

Game of Thrones: Behind the Scenes with the Filmmakers
South Hall Upper Room S220
With its spectacular battles, dragons, reverberating hugs, and death winnowing storylines, season 6 of Game of Thrones ratcheted up the tension and raised anticipation for an eventual, epic series conclusion. The season was shot simultaneously by director/cinematographer pairs rotating between stage and location (as is the custom), spotlighted a cast of hundreds and featured nearly 1900 visual effects shots. Learn how the filmmakers applied the Game of Thrones naturalistic lighting style to new locations and storylines, how they chose to block and edit the emotional turning points, and how they harnessed postproduction to visually unify the footage. Learn how they blended practical photography with CG to create rule breaking yet believable scenes and how postproduction mastered for distribution worldwide. See some great footage and understand why, in 2016, Game of Thrones drew an amazing 25.1 million viewers across all major platforms.
Panelists:
Bernadette Caulfield, Executive Producer
Greg Spence, Producer
Anette Haellmigk, Director of Photography (Emmy Nominee: Game of Thrones)
Jonathan Freeman, Director of Photography (Emmy Winner: Boardwalk Empire, Emmy Nominee: Game of Thrones)
Moderator: David Geffner, Executive Editor of ICG Magazine
Tuesday, April 25 10:30 - 11:30 a.m. Next Generation Image Making - Taking Content Creation to New Places
North Hall. Room 251
Machine intelligence, light field, volumetric capture, computational photography, real-time rendering and generative imaging have the potential to transform image making for all forms of content. Already, they are contributing to the blurring lines between live action and computer-generated imaging, and between what takes place in preproduction, production and post. What is the science behind these new technologies and how do they work? What are their current limitations and promise? Who is using them now, and for what kinds of projects? How might they alter not only how we create images for scripts, but also the foundation of image authorship? Glimpse what NAB's Central and South Hall could look like in five to ten years...
