Based on my previous experiences, I’m convinced ROE Visual offers the best quality on the market, presenting alternatives for chroma-key production that will provide revolutionary changes in how we look at post-production. I see great potential for new immersive show formats, new real-time workflows, and possibilities to shorten the production process and overall costs.
