Video gaming is bigger than ever — bigger than pro sports, bigger than movies, bigger than the music industry — and still growing. Nearly 400 million people watch eSports. eSports tournaments get larger audiences than some major pro sports championships like the World Series and NBA Finals. The 2024 Summer Olympics are considering including eSports because of the huge success of the League of Legends World Championship.
Is this because games are becoming more immersive with more stunning imagery and virtual worlds? Or is game quality and technology improving to meet the new demand? Probably both.
If you’re a gamer these days, you probably enjoy intricate social interactions and details in your multiplayer gaming, expect the dynamic graphics in a deeply engaging world to feel true to life, and appreciate complex worlds that seem unlimited. And you’re happiest when your PC or console is properly tricked out to destroy.
Bigger. Better. Faster. More. Players are always hungry for new exciting content. And game developers keep raising the bar on in-game experiences like never before — games keep growing bigger, richer and more beautiful. From 4K to HDR, downloadable content for games that operate as a service, VR, AR and MR, everything else that’s coming down the pipe — you can expect to see game sizes continue to rise. Just a few years ago games maxed out at 7GB each. Today games range anywhere from 400MB to 200GB, and that number’s growing.
Of course that all requires big technology advances. The right gear makes it easier to collect and enjoy all the stories, experiences, and universes you love in one place while making the overall gaming experience seamless.
Think of the possibilities: 4K, AR, VR, MR, HDR or beyond —
What do you want from your gaming next? What do you need in your new gear? How should game or gear developers meet your newest demands for amazing experiences?
When you’re a creative, there’s no separation between who you are as a person, and the work you do as a creative professional. You are your work, and your work is you. And today more than ever, you know managing and controlling an enormous amount of data — your work itself — is central to staying creative and productive.
Creative projects today generate massive amounts of data and creatives need to manage it all through the process from start to finish, Capture > Ingest > Edit > Deliver.
Capacity is important. For example, an URSA Mini Pro 4.6K camera generates over a Terabyte of data for every 20 minutes of video capture. And when you’re running on set doing movie production, you’ll shoot for 12 to 18 hours — how would you capture a whole day of video shooting? What’s your preferred solutions?
Speed is also incredibly important — Adobe Premiere will natively support Red 8K footage, so it’s crucial to be able to keep up with that high volume of data.
Whether you’re designing a new video game’s characters, generating and rendering complex worlds, capturing drone video for VR experiences, editing 4K video for a commercial client, or shooting and manipulating photos for magazines or wedding clients, the creative industry moves fast.
With the continuing revolution in data and its impact on how art and entertainment are created and consumed, what are your most pressing concerns as a Creative Professional today?
