Idea for May 2022: The Volume

My idea of the month is The Volume

I’ve always been fascinated by film and television production techniques. In fact, I wrote an earnest article for my school magazine on a predecessor to green screen called CSO. Now my friend Moira Tate, the distinguished production designer, tells me there’s a new thing called The Volume, created by Industrial Light and Magic (great brand name, by the way). Instead of adding in a background, it’s there in the studio on giant LED screens.
