Last week the Houdini video for Eminem crossed the 100 million view milestone on YouTube in just one month! Huge congrats to director Rich Lee and the entire Synapse team on the huge success of this project. The entire team pulled several rabbits (pun intended) out of hats to bring the video to life and the blood sweat and tears shows in the final product. It’s gratifying to see it hit the pop cultural zeitgeist as well.

Who saw Eminem's new music video for Houdini today? It features MetaHumans and the use of Unreal Engine 5. This is very exciting to see! I'm a big fan of Eminem, always have been but I'm curious to hear your thoughts on this video, specifically on how these scenes in particular made you feel. Did they look good or bad? Did they add anything to the value of the music video? These tools don’t get very much mainstream exposure (IMO), so there isn’t much data on how it’s perceived by the average viewer. If you haven't seen the music video yet, here's a link: https://lnkd.in/gMhfd3Dj The VFX in this video was created by Synapse Virtual Production

So... Yesterday Eminem’s new video for the track Houdini dropped and all hell broke loose! The clip has already amassed 20 million views and the internet is abuzz with excitement for the return of old school Slim Shady in this completely unhinged and visually dazzling video. Directed by Synapse's CCO Rich Lee, produced by CEO Justin Diener and lensed by CINO Christopher Probst, ASC the video was shot almost entirely with virtual production on our flagship LED stage at Los Angeles Center Studios. Synapse pulled out all the stops for this project, producing the project, as well as handling the creation of all of the VAD environments, providing a significant chunk of the visual effects work (in collaboration with Flawless Post and Metaphysic.ai) and blazed some uncharted territory with linking Epic Games' Unreal Engine Metahumans to facial/motion capture technology to drive some of the digital characters featured in the video (that's you, creepy ass demon-baby!). #guesswhosback #eminem #sllimshady #virtualproduction #unrealengine https://lnkd.in/gZunTxPu

Last week we had the pleasure of hosting "AI on the Lot" at our Flagship LA Studio. This event focussed on the advancement of AI, specifically it's integration into entertainment and new production/post work flows. A variety of speakers captivated the audience of 850 distinguished guests from tech, film/tv, studios and start-ups alike, all of whom demonstrated a genuine interest in this space. Thank you Forbes, Variety, and IndieWire for your coverage! Synapse Virtual Production CEO, Justin Diener shared the stage with the industry leaders Kathryn Brillhart, Andrew Fowler, Ed Ulbrich, and Christopher Nichols evaluating new AI tools and pipelines specific to Virtual Production. Aaron Gordon, COO moderated a panel for Brillhart and Connor Murphy "AI as a Creative Ally" which analyzed AI as it's own medium now working across multi-media platforms. Thank you Todd Terrazas, and his team at AI LA, our hosting partner Los Angeles Center Studios, and everyone at Synapse Virtual Production for making AI on the Lot the massive success that it was, we are honored to be a part of it. #synapse #virtualproduction #icvfx #production #filmmaking #ai #vad #education #film #tech #events
