Invisible effects and how they were invisible

Posted in: Animation

invisiblefx

There’s always so much great film work around that’s invisible, and for 3D World magazine, I highlighted a few recent releases. My favourite bit is this feature image which just has the sand bags for a deer that will be later added in for the film, Three Billboards.

Amazon and Fidelity Labs partners on a virtual reality (VR) financial agent

Posted in: Animation

Amazon and Fidelity Labs, the research arm of Fidelity Investments, have come together to showcase a virtual reality system in which people can talk to a financial advisor about their investment portfolios in a virtual world.

According to Fortune, the two companies showcased a virtual reality demonstration in which Fidelity Labs created a digital financial advisor that people can interact with using a VR headset. The VR demonstration is part of a broader pitch for Amazon’s Sumerian VR and augmented reality developer tools that are presently available to the general public to create VR and AR apps. With the help of it, people can talk to a virtual financial planner, called Cora who will come up with solutions to the queries.

Fidelity Labs created the demonstration using the same tools to learn possible ways the financial giant could realistically use VR if the technology gets accepted by the consumers, Fidelity Labs vice president Adam Schouela explained. He further added, that if the VR technology becomes successful, the financial services firm won’t be caught off guard and will have the know-how to create VR apps that resonate with consumers.

Schouela noted that the demonstration highlights the ability of Cora to hear and respond to a person’s voice, which negates some of the need for people to fiddle with a VR controller to trigger certain commands.

Amazon Sumerian general manager Kyle Roche said that by working with Fidelity Labs, it could create VR coding tools that will cater to the specific needs of companies, rather than video game developers. “What we tried to do is make these characters approachable enough, and not too cartoony so they look like Tomb Raider,” Roche added.

This is not Fidelity’s first step into the VR domain. In 2014 the company created StockCity for Oculus, combining virtual reality with data visualisation to transform an investor’s stock portfolio into a city where building size indicates volume and price data. More recently. Fidelity applied the technology to assess the impact of elements such as age, tenure and asset allocation on its workforce.

Currently, the VR experiment is for Fidelity Labs only and is not intended for a wider release. For Amazon, the VR experiment is a way the company is hoping to lure businesses to create VR apps using its tools and Amazon Web Services cloud computing features.

DHX Media’s ‘Massive Monster Mayhem heads to more international territories

Posted in: Animation

DHX Media is spreading the global reach of its original series, Massive Monster Mayhem, expected to release in the beginning of April 2018, with five additional broadcasters signed for season one. These include Lagardère’s Gulli TV and Canal J in France, TVE’s Clan in Spain, CiTV in the U.K. and ABC in Australia.

Massive Monster Mayhem is produced and globally distributed by DHX Media and is co-created by 7ate9 Entertainment founder Artur Spigel and Michael Chaves. The series is executive produced by DHX Media’s Steven DeNure, Anne Loi, Ken Faier and DHX Media president Josh Scherba.

“This series brings together so many things that kids love – crazy competitions, hilarious stunts, wild special effects and of course, space alien monsters who want to take over earth. Building on our strategy to engage kids with entertaining content and exciting toys, Massive Monster Mayhem unleashes the sort of unbridled energy and imaginative fun that kids crave. There’s no surprise that broadcasters continue to jump on board to help spread the mayhem,” said Scherba.

Massive Monster Mayhem is an original show for kids from age group six to 11 that combines live action and CGI animation with real competition and comedy. Each episode features three real-life kid heroes competing in a gauntlet of intergalactic battle alliance challenges to become earth’s champion and face off against Master Mayhem’s league of monsters in the ultimate Monster Mashdown.  The unique series combines cutting-edge, real-time CGI and pre-visualization technology.

The consumer products licensing for the same is managed by DHX Brands, with Alpha Group as global toy licensee (excluding Asia). Massive Monster Mayhem toys are expected to launch at retail in 2018.

The new broadcast agreements build on the global momentum which launched on Nicktoons in the U.S. and Family Channel in Canada last autumn will see new episodes premiering this summer. And, winter will have DHX Media announcing a global broadcast deal for more than 140 territories with Nickelodeon International and a multi-territory toy deal with Alpha Group for the brand.
