SciTech Awards Committee Investigating 11 Areas of Innovation for Academy Consideration
CG rendering techniques, fire-protective stunt gels are among 11 areas under investigation by the SciTech Awards Committee.
In-camera visual effects rendering or playback engines, a component of virtual production, are among the 11 investigations launched by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in the lead-up to its annual Scientific and Technical Awards. These investigations are made public each year so that individuals and companies with devices or claims of innovation within these areas can submit their work for review. Rounding out the list are heat-protective gel for stunt performers’ safety, artist-friendly tools for constructing anatomical character simulation setups, final frame post-process denoisers for CG rendering, dynamic time alignment of multiple moving microphones, stabilized multi-camera systems for capturing wide FOV plates, and transportable six-degrees-of-freedom motion bases capable of supporting heavy loads.
