VP Insights #6- Assets
Guest post: Eric Rigney
While the industry focuses on image quality capable of reducing post VFX (final pixel), camera set ups, and location shoots, sound recording quality is egregious left out of the picture.

Selling Virtual Production
Mesh's Virtual Production producers often get asked 'How do you sell a DP or director on Virtual Production?', and our answer is always that we are not there to ‘sell’ Virtual Production to crew members in prep. The decision to use virtual production techniques is almost as fundamental as deciding to shoot a project in a particular state or country for the tax incentives - it's part of the DNA of a project and informs a lot of downstream decisions.
