INFO: The past few years have seen an explosion in use cases for game engine and real-time rendering technologies, beyond the world of game development. Game engines are now crucial components in a range of processes across the creative industries. Film and television productions rely on game engines for Virtual Production, VFX, previz and more. Animation is undergoing a revolution with game engines enabling real-time pipelines where whole teams, previously working in relay, now work synchronously on the same project. XR media production rests heavily on game engine technology, and the race is on between major game engine platforms to be the established backbone of the metaverse.
As more and more production processes encounter the bottleneck of game engines software and real-time rendering becomes a dominant feature of emergent digital infrastructures, game engine platforms like Unity and Unreal Engine are becoming increasingly ubiquitous. Within this context ways of making and experiencing media are in flux.
This panel of industry professionals and academic experts has been convened to explore the processes of adoption and adaptation taking place in the wake of game engine technology’s proliferating utility. Game engines have been around for years: why has their impact become so accelerated and how is this affecting creators and consumers? What are the drivers for adoption within the creative industries? What adaptations will audiences and end-users make within this evolving media environment?
The event will be hosted by UWE Bristol’s Digital Cultures Research Centre with the support of MyWorld, a Creative R&D programme in the West of England region, funded by UK Research and Innovation’s (UKRI) Strength in Places Fund (SIPF).
