ARwall has announced an extended deadline for its Creative Concepts Competition as part of the BEA @ NAB event.
StudentFilmmakers.com readers, members, and industry creatives are invited to submit their most compelling virtual set concepts for a chance to see them realized using ARwall’s cutting-edge virtual production technology.
This opportunity is ideal for filmmakers, directors, visual effects artists, game developers, content creators, and streamers, as well as students, teachers, educators, and professors who want to explore the possibilities of virtual production technology.
Participants are encouraged to submit a 50 – 150-word description of a unique and compelling virtual set concept. Whether it’s a futuristic metropolis, a mystical landscape, or a cutting-edge sci-fi facility, the sky is the limit—except for content featuring pornography or extreme violence, which is prohibited.
ARwall’s creative team will select five finalists, whose concepts will be brought to life using ARwall’s Infinite Studio AI extension to the ARFX App. This is a great opportunity for students and industry professionals alike to see their ideas realized using professional virtual production tools.
This competition coincides with the upcoming iOS release of the ARFX App, just in time for NAB.
For those working in filmmaking, visual effects, gaming, education, and digital content creation, this is an opportunity to gain industry exposure, enhance portfolios, and engage with the latest in virtual production technology. ARwall looks forward to seeing the next generation of creative visionaries bring their ideas to life.
