During the pandemic, Neoscape was invited to help contribute to TEDxCambridge's 2022 show. I helped drive the ideation, previz, and content production of 12 minimal but stylized virtual sets using Unreal Engine 4. All four speakers and a musical performance leveraged virtual production with real-time raytracing thanks to our partner at Studio Lab.
On set, I assisted with making set adjustments live and conducted iterative tests per the direction of the DP and director. In addition to the virtual sets, scopes of the project grew to encompass prerendered deliverables: logo stinger, speaker title cards, transitions, cut-aways sequences, and credit scenes.
