Sounds interesting. But I think "live" or "real-time" captures it better. "Metropolis replaces the soundstage with real-time CGI" ? "Shoot with live CGI" ? "

"Metropolis replaces the soundstage with real-time CGI" ?
"Shoot with live CGI" ?
"With Metropolis, you can shoot a CGI feature in real-time" ? This is probably a little bit false as the final rendering is probably better than what you show the camera operator, but it gets the point across.
- chipsy 15y ago"Live CGI" in particular expresses something very important about the tech - that it can be used in combination with other on-set tools and props, and cuts out much of the "parallel workflow" that is currently required to composite a CGI scene. You don't get the same concept out of "real-time" or "instant" because game engines are "real-time CGI," and "instant" has an existing association with "pre-packaged" - e.g. "instant coffee." "Automatic CGI" might also work. It's not 100% accurate but it would provoke people to say "what's so automatic about it?" And from there you can explain how now the camera operator can move around a CGI set freely, etc.
- erichocean 15y agoI like these options, "Live CGI" most of all. Thanks for everyone's contribution, it's very much appreciated. :)
