From VAD to Volume: The End-to-End ICVFX Pipeline
summary
Dimension shows an end-to-end ICVFX pipeline that uses Unreal Engine as a hub to move assets from concept to LED volume, with volumetric capture, MetaHumans and live mocap feeding interactive scenes. Tools include Vicon and Air Pixel ultra-wideband tracking, Simulcam compositing, content management with per-commit profiling and CSV telemetry, and custom editor scripts. Pinocchio uses ATA‑VISION runs on 4.26 for off‑camera lighting and interactive lighting on LED panels, performance hits and a few crashes occur but the pipeline functions for multi‑vendor shoots.
