Abstract:
This course aims to present a thorough study of stereo design from the film-maker perspective, as well as to provide insight into how to harness collaborative resources to create a pleasing stereoscopic film experience. As a case study, we will describe the work-flow we implemented for DisneyToon Studios “The Secret of The Wings.” By illustrating the progression of stereo sequences from depth script all the way through final color, we hope to give a complete picture of how stereo can organically evolve alongside the changing needs of a film production. Anyone interested in incorporating stereo creation as a part of their production process, from the independent film-maker, all the way to full-scale studios with well-established pipelines will benefit from this course. Through stereo demonstrations of the evolution of shots and sequences, we will present a stereo roadmap that will allow for maximum creativity all the way to the end of a project. Because the majority of the tools developed for this film were created using Autodesk Maya, the technical aspects of this course will be illustrated through this lens, but the concepts will be applicable to the making of CG films in general.
