Key Workshops: From Gaussian Splatting to Production Pipelines 🛠️
For the video game developer, Convergences offers high-value technical content. The workshop dedicated to Gaussian Splatting stands out, a revolutionary 3D representation technique with direct applications in creating environments for virtual reality and high-fidelity real-time cinematics. Alongside this, sessions on new opportunities between animation and video games, and innovation in production pipelines, provide practical knowledge to optimize workflows.
