Gala Van de Gouden K's - Virtual Production - Ketnet/Vrt - Unreal Engine 4

In January 2021 I worked on the first XR (Extended Reality) - production in Belgium as part of the AED Studios XR-team together with MalfMedia, AVWizard, Eurogrip, Qbe and byLexDesign as the Unreal Engine Designer. 'Het Gala van de Gouden K's' is an award show from the kids' network on Television that normally takes place in a very big hall 'Sportpaleis' full of kids and their parents. Due to coronavirus, the network looked for another exciting way to organize this event. Cue XR-Production at AED Studios. This was the largest XR-Production that has been done anywhere in the world up to this point with an audience integrated into the Virtual World, LIVE!

My part as Unreal Designer was to create the Award-Island frontplate and backplate loaded with animation cues (via d3) and DMX controllable lights (all lights of the island are controlled by DMX). And make sure the file could run at a minimum of 50fps.

Very proud of the project and hoping to do more XR very soon!
