A real-time virtual photography suite for directors, designed to compose, light, and capture high-definition scenes inside Unity.
Built in 2020, this project delivered a complete virtual photography workflow for film and commercial production, enabling directors to block, light, and capture scenes with the immediacy of a physical set and the repeatability of a digital pipeline.
At its core was a high-fidelity real-time rendering stack using Radeon ProRender inside Unity, tuned for clean lighting, material response, and cinematic composition. The toolset prioritised director ergonomics: rapid iteration, confident framing, and a capture pipeline that produced high-definition stills and scene outputs suitable for review and production planning.
Structured like a studio instrument, the suite supported intentional scene assembly, fast lighting refinement, and consistent capture across iterations, resulting in faster creative decisions and tighter collaboration.
A focused workspace for building and staging film-grade scenes quickly, with director-friendly control and minimal friction.
Lighting and material workflows tuned for believable response and artistic control, prioritising clarity and shot-readiness.
High-definition output tooling designed for review, planning, and creative alignment, not just screenshots.
