BRICS Film Technology Symposium, 1-2 Sep 2021
Overview
Technology plays a great role in all aspects of film making, be it shooting, editing, distribution, exhibition, or preservation. Now a days, film technologies are fast changing and affecting favourably to the time and cost of film making. It is also making film distribution easy and making it available to the remote areas to the larger audience and enhancing the viewing experience to the audience to a great extent. Technology has provided a tool to the film makers to tell stories more powerfully. Technology has become another character in film making. Use of animation and Visual effects have become a rule in film making and now immersive technologies like Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) are chaining the viewing experience to 360 degree. Due to fact changing nature of technology, it is imperative to keep pace with this change and discuss on the different use of technology in film making and share knowledge among the users.
In this effort of bringing together the best of minds and business communities in this sector together from BRICS Countries, a symposium is being organised on film technologies i.e. Animation, Visual Effects, and Film shooting technologies, Film exhibition technologies, use of Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality, Editing, Dubbing and other pre-production, production, and Post production technologies in film making. As India is a significant player in the world in this field, it is an opportune moment for India to take a leadership position and organize a symposium on this subject for knowledge sharing, technology showcase, and business networking.
