Walls without Boundaries

Rob is going to approach virtual production from the perspective of cinematography as a storytelling discipline on the volume. Rather than focusing exclusively on tools or workflows, he is going to explore how working on LED stages, and the increasing reliance on previs, affects creative decision-making, risk, and authorship. Drawing on his experience across physical sets and his transition into virtual environments, Rob is going to examine where traditional cinematic principles still provide clarity, and where processes designed to solve problems early can start to limit on-set creativity. Designed to provoke discussion as much as instruction, he is going to invite the audience to reconsider where boundaries are necessary, and where they can be productively broken.
