Virtuaalset
Virtuaalset is a term used to describe the use of virtual environments in media production to substitute or augment physical sets. The concept combines real-time computer graphics with camera tracking to create immersive environments that respond to actor movement and lens perspective. In practice, virtuaalset workflows often rely on display surfaces such as LED panels or green-screen backdrops, with the final background rendered live or in near real time.
Origin and development: The approach evolved from traditional chroma-key techniques and became practical with advances in
Technology and components: Real-time rendering engines (e.g., Unreal Engine, Unity) generate backgrounds; camera tracking systems supply
Applications: News and talk shows, sports broadcasts, live events, commercials, films, and virtual production workflows for
Challenges and considerations: High initial cost, technical complexity, and the need for specialized crew and pipeline
