Foundry invites you to their event
About this event
In Marvel’s Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, the protagonist Shang-Chi is a master of weaponry-based Kung Fu. So, when TRIXTER was assigned to work on the film, it was fitting that their look development and lighting tool of choice was Katana.
A master in his own right, TRIXTER’s Head of Lighting and Look Development, Julius Ihle will bring you behind the scenes of the Oscar-nominated film. During the presentation, Julius will show how TRIXTER used Katana to perfect hero characters and environmental assets, keep artists focused on creativity, and overcome technical challenges.
Join this special session live to get an exclusive look at Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings and to ask your need-to-know questions.
