This June, Stash is bringing the Collider Conference to the Big Apple.
The three-day digital production conference plans to confront some of the major issues that impact the business practices, staffing and the impact of new technology in the industry today.
Psyop’s Senior Technical Director, Todd Akita, will be among those presenting a master class. His session, entitled “Working Smarter Not Harder in Digital Production,” will cover how visual artists, from motion graphics to compositing and 3D, can apply smart math to extend their artistic range and solve a wide range of production challenges.
“I came from a fine arts background and sort of fell in to computer graphics after graduating college. So, for better or worse, I’m almost entirely self taught,” says Akita. “The course will try to make the math aspects accessible through practical examples and real world scenarios. By placing emphasis on visualizing physical relationships in 3D, I aim to teach how the ideas can become less abstract and more concrete.”
Collider will feature more than 40 speakers this year and anticipates over 1,000 creative, production and management attendees from the advertising, TV, feature film, gaming and interactive industries.
