Intro to Virtual Production
What Is Virtual Production?
Virtual production (VP) is a filmmaking technique that combines live-action footage with digital imagery in real time. VP often happens on volume stages where interlocked LED panels display photo-real backdrops that change as the camera moves to create stunning in-camera virtual effects (ICVFX).

What Is Image-Based Lighting?
Steve Giralt explains what image-based lighting (IBL) is, how it works, and what its role is in virtual production.
Get Inspired
Expand your understanding of VP with real-world case studies, hands-on guidance, and professional advice you won’t want to miss.
The best way to immerse yourself in the world of virtual production is to check out case studies and volume builds that creatives and brands have posted online. This can give you inspiration for your own work and show you real world applications for the technology and theory behind OSVP. From there, schedule tours of local virtual production facilities and start building hands-on experience.
