This session covers developments on improving different aspects of programme production. The presented papers are: the BBC’s work on a low cost virtual camera system for in-camera visual effects; on work at HFF and IIS, Germany, on exploring the use of AI assisted tools to support end-to-end visual effects production workflows that meet broadcast quality standards under real world constraints; and from WPP Production on a way to address the inability of current AI models to reason about the structural intent behind an edit sequence. There also are three strong supporting papers.
