5D DISCUSSION IN BERLIN 2012

The 5D Institute is excited to announce, for our second year, a unique event at the Berlin Film Festival. In partnership with the Berlinale Talent Campus, 5D will curate a panel discussion and masterclass on the nature of design process and the practice of world building for digital narrative media.After the success of the 5D ”Play as Process” panel and workshop at the 2011 Berlinale Talent Campus, the 5D Institute will again be part of the Talent Campus, curating 2 panels for the 2012 edition.

This illustrious panel of designers and artists will explain how screenwriters, filmmakers, designers and producers can create unique visual worlds as the settings for their films.  Our world is the product of millennia of visionary designs, inventions, and creations by imaginative thinkers who have envisioned the possibilities beyond the limits of current reality. Designers who are tasked with creating entirely new worlds and alternate universes must be able to think freely and into the unknown in order to imagine and render these narrative worlds. The discussion will connect a holistic conception of immersive design to a new process of creative collaboration, using the powerful link between the digital workspace, a non-linear work flow, and a new understanding of virtual production.
