Nominated for a visual effects Academy Award, DreamWorks’ “Real Steel” was recognized not only for its rollicking boxing matches between CG robots, but also for the seamless way the film moves between practical robots and their CG counterparts. In this panel, some of the “Real Steel” filmmakers walk through robot design, explain key techniques and shots, and share the groundbreaking virtual-production process inflables that they packed up and moved to Detroit, which compressed the shooting schedule to 71 days with no second unit.
The session takes place Tuesday (7 August) from 10:45 AM – 12:15 PM in the LA Convention Center’s Hall B. PLEASE NOTE: After the session, Noisy Boy will be moved to a secure location nearby so that attendees have a few hours for photographs with him.

Nice article. I agree with you, it is trciky sharing code and well-earned knowledge with the masses, without violating an NDA ( or whatever whoever calls it ). However, I also found that it ultimately depends on who exactly you’re working for, not strictly because you’re working in the industry. My opinion here is from the game industry heh, but still; If you’re working for a small company, a slightly more relaxed work environment, their opinion on that situation might be totally different, IMHO.
