The presentation gives an overview over the work in BBC R&I on 3D content creation and its use in broadcast. Previous projects looked into studio-based capture of live action and applications for special effects. As part of that activity production aids were also considered, in particular visualisation aids for the creative.
More recent work focussed on the 3D modelling and visualisation of sport scenes.
