With the intention of achieving interoperability of all on-set equipment, SMPTE has published the first of its Rapid Industry Solutions (RIS) On-Set Virtual Production Camera and Lens Metadata guidelines. The initial focus is traditional VFX, with cameras, lenses and camera tracking to follow. The project can be found in this Github repository. Reference code is provided that converts the output of camera makers’ tools into a normalised JSON format.
An Interactive Virtual Production Wall Chart will be available by the end of 2023 to showcase virtual production workflows.
