As a filmmaker, staying ahead of the curve is vital. I recently attended a cutting-edge seminar at PROTO, the North East’s hub for innovation, focused on virtual production—a technique revolutionising how we tell stories on screen.

The day was packed with insights into motion capture (mocap), volume capture, and the use of real-time rendering engines to create immersive environments. These tools are reshaping how directors like myself can approach pre-visualization and production. For me, understanding the intricacies of these techniques means I can now seamlessly guide projects that require these advanced workflows.

Whether it’s creating real-time environments for narrative projects or enabling dynamic pre-visualisations, I am now fully equipped to harness the power of virtual production. My role as a director is not just about storytelling—it’s about ensuring that every shot, even in complex digital environments, resonates with purpose and precision.
