Since the original Disney film and television drama Mandalorian has completely changed the traditional film and television shooting structure in terms of commercial returns and technological innovation, virtual shooting has gradually attracted the attention of the film and television shooting market. In this process, the stagecraft system built by industrial light and magic ILM for the shooting of this drama marks that the virtual production virtual photography technology has reached a new height in real applications.
The LED virtual studios included in the framework of the virtual production system have gradually become known to the world. Major film and television companies in Europe and the United States have built led virtual studios one after another, and the virtual production technology has also been widely used in the shooting process of popular IP film and television works such as Raytheon 4, western world and new Batman.
A few days ago, AIE Australia released the world’s first higher diploma course in film and television virtual production and reality expansion, and simultaneously launched the plan to build the largest LED virtual studio in the southern hemisphere. During this period, AIE President Mr. Guo Lei was interviewed. Through Mr. Guo’s narration, every detail of virtual production is restored. Mr. Guo Lei also serves as the president of the production business of Dems entertainment, an Australian film and television company.
Question 1: please introduce AIE and AIE’s virtual production courses.

Aie has always adhered to the teaching concept of synchronizing with the world’s most advanced visual effect application technology, and has provided a large number of higher professionals for the global game, animation, film and television and content creation fields. After virtual production, the latest film and television shooting technology, was put into use, AIE immediately completed the design and industrial environment construction of the film and virtual production course, and optimized the course by acquiring professional companies and recruiting film and television professionals.

This industrial environment includes rendering tool unreal4, arri camera, motion capture system arguise, mechanical rocker technodolly Brompton control system and led virtual studio built by LianJian optoelectronics pilot 2.6 are the mainstream choice in the world for shooting film and television works based on virtual production technology.
Question 3: in addition to education, is there any other plan in AIE’s virtual film and television production?
Guo Lei: first of all, in terms of education, due to the epidemic, the deployment of the shooting environment based on LianJian optoelectronic display in the four colleges in Australia was several months later than planned, which also affected the environmental construction of AIE’s American campus, but my team and I are trying to make up for this delay.
In the part of film and television shooting, AIE is ready to fully open the construction plan of the largest VP virtual studio in the southern hemisphere. It also uses the ring LED display screen as the infrastructure. This project has also received financial and policy support from the local government. Dems entertainment, AIE’s affiliated film company, also plans to start two sci-fi movies based on its own VP studio in the middle of this year.
