How the VFX industry will thrive post-Covid
What it takes to maintain world-class creative output in a hybrid-working future
The pandemic has forced creative businesses of all kinds to totally rethink their working model: a baptism by fire that has put a new hybrid-working future to the test. When it comes to creating entertainment content, studios packed with state-of-the-art kit with eye-watering processing power suddenly had to decamp and operate remotely – without breaking stride.
“Just because we’re in the middle of a global pandemic, studios aren’t getting a pass,” reflects Robert Hoffmann, senior worldwide industry manager for media & entertainment at Lenovo. “Locked at home, we’re still craving new and fresh content. We can’t let infrastructure be a barrier between artists and what they’re trying to create. Regardless of the situation, they need to be able to create and iterate as quickly as possible, and often.”

In September there was a 18 hour flight Dubai that ended in Auckland. A relatively close group on that plane showed infection after arrival, and a genetically similar version. The evidence of in-flight infection is very strong and points to the on-going issues with shipping virus hosts around the world. This has some pretty strong implications for long-haul flights in particular. But also to the risks of having travel ‘bubbles’ without enforced quarantine.
