Description
ZR Acoustics® in Space
Season 2 of Star War’s latest storyline applied ZR Acoustics® Quantum Acoustic Technology hand in hand with the latest in visual effects technology, allowing creative freedom unlike ever before in television and film production. “Virtual Production” creates a need for an equally revolutionary Acoustic Technology. To capture intelligible, clear dialogue, ZR Micro Screens were utilized on the new “StageCraft Volume” set. The result was extensive use of production dialogue, less need for ADR, plus time and budget savings in post-production. Flexible, lightweight and portable, ZR Acoustics® Screens lived on rolling C-Stands, continuously moving and adapting to the actors, the “StageCraft Volume” and the acoustic relationship between them. ZR Technology is also used in Season 3 of The Mandalorian.
The acoustic technology powering the passive, no power required, ZR Screens is called Quantum Acoustics™, currently designed into a wide variety of music, film, tv, internet, podcast, aerospace, transportation and architectural applications worldwide.
The Future of Cinema technology for theatrical and post production is ZR Halo with Direct View, Emissive LED Displays. Acoustic technology and VFX technology continue to evolve in parallel for a seamless, ever-improving presentation to the audience.
For more detail read production mixer, Shawn Holden‘s article about the experience of capturing dialogue for the Mandalorian in IATSE Local 695’s online magazine.
“The screens don’t absorb sound or deflect it, rather they take the air that sound travels in and breaks it apart to make the reflecting sound disappear. It’s actually quite remarkable.” – Shawn Holden
