We debuted a new mixed-reality feature tonight as part of the gameday fan experience. This guarantees that when Pixotope augments material onto a camera feed, the original image qualities are left perfectly intact. The Future Group installed their mixed reality platform Pixotope as the central hub of the complex production, which would later layer the real-time augmented content over the live-action shots. But this does not work for a live scenario. This makes a large flare become visible, which covers part of the person even though the sun is behind them. The laser-scanned model of the stadium, which was also imported into Pixotope, was used as a “shadow catcher”. The unveiling comes a … In order to achieve this, Pixotope had to simulate the real-world camera position, viewing direction, and focal length of the real-world camera’s lens. This merging process essentially creates “live” animation to move each part of the raven model from the position it was last in, to the position set out in the next animation segment, over a short period of time.
Or, in terms I’m more familiar with, it’s like a really wild mushroom trip. A giant-sized raven was seen to swoop and land in the stadium and respond to in-game live moments. That's the Baltimore Ravens' new "mixed reality" experience and its here to make a giant mess of some poor sap's windshield. At this point, the game engine could be triggered via Pixotope to merge to a different animation, such as making the raven take-off and fly away. To overcome these complex challenges, the clever solution The Future Group employed was to build the goal posts as a 3D object within Pixotope. Rotoscoping is also another post tool that cannot be implemented in this case because the framing of the target object could not be known ahead of production time, as it was shot from a freely moving camera with a variable zoom lens. One such post-processing effect used on the Baltimore Ravens project was a custom “light-wrap” effect. This process ensured that the virtual raven was “filmed” correctly from exactly the correct angle. The Ravens are re-inventing the way NFL offenses can thrive and Thursday night, they added a new feature to improve the in-game experience as well. Since Pixotope works in real-time, adjustments and improvements to most aspects of the production can (and do) occur right up until the last minute. The Baltimore Ravens added an interesting new twist to their gameday experience in their convincing 42-21 win over the New York Jets on Thursday night. Keying cannot be relied upon because it is not able to predict what colours will appear around the object to be keyed. As every visual effects person will agree, it is the small finer details added to CG which contributes to it looking realistic. Their expertise in the space was a big value-add, and when it came time to developing the various animations, Pixotope helped us with refining the look and feel of the character.”. To allow for this scenario, The Future Group relied on the ability of Pixotope to fully access the powerful underlying Unreal Game engine. Frank Daniel Vedvik adds, “The goal-posts model was used to create a “hold out mask”, which created a hole in the alpha channel of the raven so that when it was added to the background, the part that would cover the foreground post was effectively erased.” This presented the audience with the illusion that the raven appeared to sit perfectly between the goal posts. Sign up and get updates about Pixotope right into your mailbox. CBS Sports reported that the mixed reality segments “Had fans, (and anyone who saw the video on social media), in awe.”, The Future Group’s CEO Marcus Blom Brodersen concludes, “Mixed reality content has the power to grab the attention and drive engagement of a wider audience, by providing extra dimensions to the viewer’s experience and creating cut-through, stand-out moments that are so shareable on social media. However, in a live scenario, it is not known how long the shot will be because the duration will depend upon unfolding game-play events.

Jon Slusser continues, “First and foremost, The Future Group took time to understand the project and help strategize with us as we communicated back to the client. How it works is that only the shadows that fall upon the model of the stadium are rendered, which are then composited over the live-action shots. The new "mixed-reality" feature gives fans the ability to view animations within the stadium in real-time. As The Future Group’s Chief Creative Officer, Øystein Larsen expands, “One key difference between real-time (live) use of computer animation and the more traditional use within a post-production environment, is that there are many more variables to prepare for with live events.
