Mandalorian/Boba Fett Style VFX Tech Eyed for Doctor Who

Visual Effects Editor Emily Lawrence has said she would like to see tech similar to The Mandalorian employed in Doctor Who in future.

Star Wars series The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett use a virtual production called ILM StageCraft. Anyone who has seen it in action knows how good it makes the alien landscapes of the shows look, and it would be a perfect fit for Doctor Who.

Lawrence explained in DWM (via): “The 360 screens in The Mandalorian and how they used gaming software to create those amazing landscapes is something I’d love to see in Doctor Who.

“The actors walk in front of the screen and the environment moves with them. That means we wouldn’t need green screen anymore and that would really help our VFX vendors, because they wouldn’t have to spend hours rotoscoping out the green screen.”
