“We developed tools so that we could see a live preview of the final shot while we were filming,” he says. Webber explains that he had access to two monitor feeds on set, one with the live camera feed and one with the live action portion of the shot composited into the virtual world. “Because of the speed of the rendering and the interactivity, you can see a reasonable quality version of it in real time if you want.

I’m very keen to develop longer length material. I’ve got some ideas of my own.”is slated to screen at several upcoming events including Carmarthen Bay Film Festival an Sci Fi London.
