At SIGGRAPH 2023, Unity Wētā Tools will be presenting a keynote that will reiterate Unity’s commitment to expanding the boundaries of digital production, fostering innovation and creativity by providing creators with versatile and powerful tools, enabling them to realize their visions, regardless of style or complexity. Presenters including Unity’s Allan Poore and Natalya Tatarchuk, Steve May from Pixar, and Joe Letteri of WētāFX will bring the audiences along as they show how Unity Wētā Tools are currently being used in award-winning films to accelerate creative workflows, implement creative changes more easily, and produce higher-quality final shots.

"Unity is investing significantly in research and development, supporting ongoing innovation, and driving the future of content creation,” said Allan Poore, SVP of Unity Wētā Tools. “We are excited to showcase the work we are doing with high-end 3D artist tools, and we are looking to bring new innovations to help creators be successful, unleashing the creativity for 3D artists."

Unity Wētā Tools will also demonstrate how creators can use its latest character tools to match creative briefs in any design language for film, animation, and games. The latest digital human, Samir, and stylized creature, Nova, both run in real-time and demonstrate outstanding biomechanics as part of their performances. Collaborative tools like SyncSketch are being showcased, facilitating smoother collaboration and providing real-time and async feedback for faster iteration. As well as this, the introduction of Unity Wētā Tools’ Deep Compositing and Eddy are set to redefine post-production workflows, enabling creators to achieve unprecedented depth and detail in their productions.

"Our focus has always been on helping filmmakers and part of that process is extending what is possible in visual effects," said five-time Academy Award winner Joe Letteri, Wētā FX Senior VFX Supervisor. "Deep compositing, Wig, and the integrated solver framework for Loki are all examples of how we took our experience with some of the largest and most complex projects and embedded the knowledge we acquired into the tools themselves."

Unity's dedication to innovation and time-saving tooling helps accelerate content creation while reducing repetitive tasks, further expanding Unity's footprint in the digital entertainment industry.
