Local 600/ICG Magazine’s "Deep Dive" #4 visits with the creative team behind television’s most talked-about series, The Mandalorian. The Disney + megahit (the first live-action Star Wars TV series), established a revolutionary workflow in Season 1 that included volumetric capture, large-screen LED walls, game engine technology, virtual-camera based previsualization, and the closest integration of on-set capture and visual effects ever attempted. Season 2 of The Mandalorian built upon these innovations, establishing Creator Jon Favreau’s ambitious vision as the bellwether for all future visual effects-based productions (of any size and budget).

Panelists

Executive Editor David Geffner will moderate the conversation, which first began in ICG Magazine’s February/March cover story on Season 1 of The Mandalorian.
