Virtual Vision S.A.
creates digital life forms

Virtual Vision offers animated film production and the creation of digital actors. The use of real-time animation techniques enables the production of high-quality content at competitive prices.

Virtual Vision's operations focus on the production of television programs and feature films using computer-generated imagery. Until recently, the use of computer technology in film and television production was limited to creating special effects. Today, however, computer animation and similar techniques have become tools used to produce entire films rather than just isolated sequences. VirtualVision aims to build a production team capable of matching the quality and efficiency of renowned studios such as Pixar, ILM, PDI/DreamWorks, Blue Sky, and Animal Logic.

Alongside its existing manufacturing and service operations, Virtual Vision aims to establish a research center dedicated to developing software that enables the real-time production of films and series, utilizing simulation techniques to create photorealistic virtual actors. Despite the dominant position of American firms, none have developed production methods for the real-time simulation of photorealistic actors. Replacing a real actor with a digital double is a process currently used primarily for special effects—such as in dangerous action sequences or scenes that would be impossible for an actor or stunt double to perform. Creating these effects currently involves processing individual film frames, making such services extremely costly and time-consuming. A database capable of reproducing a photorealistic actor would, for instance, allow a deceased actor to be "brought back to life" on screen, or enable an aging actor to control his own younger digital avatar ("digital make-up"). A database that reproduces a photorealistic human figure not only opens up new artistic possibilities and production methods for film and television but also offers broad applications in areas such as video game development and medicine.
