Background

• Framestore created the FUSE project (Framestore Unreal Shot Engine) an initiative to develop an new linear content pipeline to deliver Feature film VFX quality shots utilizing Unreal Engine.
• I was the Product Owner for the FUSE project, and designed the full pipeline components that went into Unreal Engine.
• The newly formed Engine team at Framestore implemented these designes into the components that were later used by the artists during the full production of FLITE

‍

Pre-Production

• During preproduction I acted as a Realtime Supervisor providing support for the previs/techvis team to start using the initial implementation of the FUSE pipeline.
• All the while supervising the assets/environment team into starting to develop the key environments of Futuristic London and Stevies Apartment.

‍

Shoot

• On the shoot I supervised the Virtual production Team as well as performing various set related miscellanous tasks.

Before And Afters

Tim Webber: I think that’s true. I think it’s hard to make stuff with Unreal at scale, it’s fine if you’re making it amongst a small team of people working closely together, but if you’re making it at scale, it needs a pipeline applied to it, and that was one of the things we wanted to do.

FLITE: Art Department

[...] Stevie's history and how that would be reflected in the apartment, that there should be an indoor boarding area and given the success of her career it should be a huge, warehouse style loft.
