The Influence of Real time Rendering on the Film Industry
Key words:
Time-effective, Real-interactive, Rasterization, Redistribution, Efficient
In recent years, the rapid development of real-time rendering has opened up more possibilities for media such as movies or games. Unlike traditional industrial streams, real-time rendering allows the work content to be re-divided. Its real-time and interactive nature can make directors more efficient to preview the effect which is close to the final film effect directly. This greatly reduces the time and production cost, and improves the collaboration efficiency of all departments.
However, this technology based on the rasterization is still in development. Compared with ray tracing rendering technology, it will inevitably sacrifice some image quality and authenticity.
Real time movies, such as Avatar and Lion King, have been recognized in various game engines. This technology may not only change the industrial flow of film production, but also generate more interactive ways for audiences or more people to participate in the production.
