(Los Angeles, CA) The Los Angeles Post Production Group welcomes Sony Pictures
Imageworks’ Digital Effects Supervisor Daniel Kramer on September 21st
at 5pm at the DV Expo at the Pasadena Convention Center.
Kramer, who supervised the digital effects for “The Smurfs” will
offer attendees the rare opportunity to hear first-hand how Papa Smurf, Brainy
Smurf and Smurfette were brought to life by discussing 2D to 3D character design
challenges, look development features, animation, on-set data acquisition and
a new physically based lighting pipeline specifically developed for the project.
According to Kramer, this new technology significantly reduced lighting setup
time allowing his department to finish shots faster and spend more time on improving
the quality of the Smurfs’ digital image.
“This will be a great opportunity to get a behind the scenes look at
how these animated characters are created,” explained LAPPG Founder Woody
Woodhall, CAS who will be presenting “Post Sound for Digital Content Creators:
What You Need to Know to Make Your Project Sound As Good As It Looks”
earlier that day at the DVE Center Stage at 12:30pm.
