Simulcam in Unreal 5 with HTC VIVE VR

Use the HTC VIVE VR device to track real-life cameras and send position and rotation date to Unreal Engine 5 in real time. As to achieve real-time synchronization between the real camera and the virtual camera

Working with film crews

Virtual production brings a very different production process to traditional filmmakers and can give them more creative possibilities.

We ran into issues with too many objects in the background, not enough lighting, and changing the focal length of the virtual camera while we were shooting. And in Unreal5, I just need to delete the object or change the parameters, which can simply complete the effect the director wants in few seconds.
