This masterclass offers an in-depth exploration of Color Management, Color Spaces, ACES and Workflow, aiming to provide a comprehensive understanding of the reasons behind different Color Spaces and effective methods for managing footage. The discussion specifically delves into the next phase of color management for on-set virtual production, emphasizing the transformative impact of color science in this evolving landscape. 

Mastery of color control across cameras, LED displays, rendering engines, and on-set lighting is highlighted to efficiently realize artistic visions and avoid costly post-production issues.  The masterclass draws inspiration from Picasso’s philosophy, referencing the SMPTE Rapid Industry Solutions initiative’s Color Council to recommend best practices and enhance color management in the virtual production ecosystem.

The significance of accuracy and reliability in virtual production, especially in maintaining color consistency when filming from LED walls, is explored, and provides an overview of essential tools for precise LED wall calibration in ICVFX environments, aiming to minimize efforts in both on-set and post-production for color correction. The importance of maximizing shoot days and ensuring high-quality, authentic image production is emphasized, particularly for creative teams in studio facilities.
