The secrets of the BBC's Tokyo 2020 studio | Tokyo Olympics 
Спорт
Got to say I work in CGI and I was blown away by the quality of the BBC studio. I had to watch each evening. The design of the building is first class not even mentioning the whole system. Congrats on a fantastic job and truly game changing for the future of Live event coverage. 👏
Getting the perspective right from the different cameras which are moving, and all done live, is incredible. I also noticed the virtual world also takes inputs from the real world, like when a presenter should be partly behind a virtual object, it is rendered correctly.
I love the great live broadcasting effects that really fools me with the perfect perspective as the camera moves around.
I've never been so amazed and disappointed at the same time 😂
You took the words right out of my mouth! The idea that the team were not in Tokyo but in Salford! I know I risk offending the good folks of Salford but it doesn't exactly have the same ring to it, compared to travelling away to anime world! I suppose the clue was there when Adam Petty turned up in the studio AFTER his return from Tokyo 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
The disappointment in his voice when he said they were in Salford lmfao
I don’t blame him 🤣
They’re in by far the best bit of Salford he’d be a lot more disappointed if they were in ordsall
Yeah I thought they were really out there until yesterday when they interviewed some Team GB medalists and said how was it like since they came back and thought what!!! Though I did have my suspicions about a week ago when they showed it getting dark in Tokyo when it was only about 5pm and thought that isn't right!!!
So much crime there
Bruhhhh what
It's Unreal Engine for those that are interested. It's absolutely mind blowing in its current form.
I guess it makes more sense for the average viewer to know it's powered by the same thing that powers Fortnite, as they may not have heard of Unreal Engine.
5 is truly next level
BBC are class when it comes to background CGI and intros, true visual experts.
They're class at hiring and protecting nonces
They're great at triggering the insecure ^^
They are class when it comes to lying in order to secure interviews with royalty too
Yeah they were great at hiding Jimmy Saville groping young girls
@@recall2880 I think that Jimmy did a bit more than that. Visiting kids wards in hospitals late at night etc people just turned a blind eye.
Setting up a studio like this seems much more eco-friendly and less wasteful of resources whilst also looking pretty cool - fair play!
The production value has been absolutely incredible. It took me a few days to realise they’re not actually in Tokyo
Really? Wow.
Seriously?! 😂
Shame about the presenters
I only just realised today - think my eyes need testing again haha
Ikr same!
Well done BBC for sharing this.
Ah the BBC: creating fakenews and fostering racial hatred against the Chinese just like how Goebbels used to against the Je ws
@@slslbbn4096 yes, and the communist chinese one party goverment controlled CCTV tells and reports you everything turth.
@@simonorange4191 nah not really. But the BBC is no different
@@slslbbn4096 nah... I do think the CCTV reports all the turth. Every other countries' TV stations report fake especially the US and UK who are independent and are not controlled by their democratically elected goverment. The chinese TV stations are controlled by the Chinese communist party, so they MUST report the TRUTH.
@@simonorange4191 riiiiiight 🤦♂️
As a 3D artist I spotted it straight away, then wasn't so convinced, then was certain again, and then once one of the guests said "... here in Manchester...", I was like ...awww XD Top stuff!
This is a pain that MOTD fans went through about a year ago
That show between linicker , that fool here walkerrrr have ruined Sports shows for People that love Sport ... fake sickening STAINS . They can NOT speak properly anymore . BACK to linicker he has Spat and Shate on Live Tv and still he gets away with it .
Back to school you go David
@@davidlalor9464 Have you ever considered taking some English lessons because reading that felt like I was having a stroke.
@@davidfewtrell3479 a stroke you say . Its nothing like a stroke. Iv had 2 of them . One killed me and the second I had while learning to walk again . Listening to these fools is closer to the STROKE. I spell there names wrong because these stains DON'T deserve to be on tv let alone get there names Right . As for the punctuation ...... My Bad .
@@davidlalor9464 uh... what
It’s a truly great CGI set. Beautifully designed
For those people who are gamers but don't play Fortnite, he's talking about the Unreal Engine.
Yeah it's an odd way to say it as Fortnite is hardly the best example of unreal's capabilities
@@reddragon3132 I'm guessing they said Fortnite because 1. It's a household name and 2. They are both by Epic Games (Fortnite and Unreal Engjne).
FYI the Unreal Engine exists since 1995. It has nothing to do with Fortnite, except that Fortinite uses it, as hundreds of other games do.
Unreal Engine was also used for real time compositing for the huge wraparound LED screen wall used in _The Mandalorian_ in lieu of a conventional green screen, as all the shiny armour would have made traditional chromakey compositing a nightmare.
BBC's Tokyo 2020 studio it was incredibly beautiful, we watched sports news with our family and could not even think that everything was so modern there.
It's such old technology though, how are people so impressed by this.
I was completely fooled to believe the studio was real. Simply stunning 🤩
Genuinely loved the CGI studio, well done to all those involved with it!
Happy that the table is real...great design :) .
I genuinely was thinking that table is really bad CGI 😂
The fish are good tho
It's bad enough!
i wanted to know if the three pieces fit into each other
Same 😅
This is how it should be for every event.
What fake ?
Thank you so much, BBC PORT!😃
Ah yes my favourite channel, BBC Port.
That studio needs to be winning all sorts of awards
Have to appreciate the time and effort to put this in place, I’m guessing it works out cheaper to do it this way than the traditional way with hotels, studios etc. Also showing the power of the Unreal Engine 5 to do it live with no tearing across multiple cameras. Very good example and encouragement for a new generation of cinematographers and computer programmers that they have genuine opportunities ahead!
0:34 Look at the crazy detail on this little fellas!
*Shows a duplicated fish clipping though the rocks*
Amazing!
See, this is why I've been talking a lot about Unreal Engine to you!
This is the video I've been waiting for.
Hats off to the design and build team, great work.
I had a feeling it was similar to the tech used on The Mandalorian due to the parallax with the camera movement. They actually used Unreal engine too. The difference is large panoramic led screens were used to display the CG environments in real time which also provided lighting for the Mandalorian
Yeah the difference is they didn’t need to do any keying on the Mandalorian, everything is more or less captured in-camera.
@@shelbyvillerules9962 Agreed. Impressive nonetheless and probably the first time it's been used for a daily broadcast. Technology has come a long way
I was taken away by this!!! Technology at some of its best… thanks for the honesty BBC.. I actually did enjoy your coverage
This was awesome to see!
Considering we didn't notice the difference, this makes perfect sense to do for the future :)
It's pretty obvious that they're not in tokyo though and that it's all CGI
Genuinely brilliant!
The lower deck floor and fish was the only thing I could tell was cgi and I've been playing real or fake with myself for 2 weeks. 👍
and thank you for telling us that
Blooming brilliant...I thought they were all in Tokyo and wondered about the air-fares!!!
Absolutely amazing, although I knew it wasn't actually Tokyo after around about an 1hr of watching and the obvious fact COVID is happening and thought, nah, that's a studio in England somewhere, but still it's awesome to see.
I did actually see the Ghost image he was talking about.
Can pull the wool on your can we Peter!
*Thank you! Very few media org. will show us behind the scenes*
Futuristic technology at its best it only took me until the final day to notice the Studio wasn't even in Tokyo due to the State of Emergency and it was in the MOTD studio in Salford Brilliantly done.
Sam Quek was a breath of fresh air on the beeb's coverage. Great presenter unlike someone I'll respectfully not mention.
Fabulous!
Technology, wonderful!
The bit that was the most fun for me was figuring out which bits of the set were real and which weren't.
Brilliant!
Lovely to see that in the middle of all of the high tech at 2:21 is a relic of the 1950s. The base for the Jimmy Jib is a Vinten HP419 pedestal manufactured from 1956 until the 1970s
Very impressive!
Great work BBC
It is incredibly clever green screen work. I've had to convince several people that the studio wasn't real and was CGI.
Those several people are complete idiots then.
Love this!
So cool!!!
Unreal Engine is amazing!
Really interesting video! Nice to see how it's make
Love this! Every time I watch the Olympics I've been wondering where they are and how its done.
Gorgeous!!
Amazing 👏🏿
This is actually future technology
Brilliant BBC ..
I was totally convinced they were in Tokyo, but, now it's burst my bubble
That's some great CGI work creating the two fish!
Shame they're not to Scale...
I appreciated their synchronised - I mean artistic - swimming.
That will be one fish. Which has been duplicated, and textured differently.
That was Chris Koi and Linford Fish-tie.
amazing!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Wow now there’s something I have learnt today!
Id build a real version as a house if i had the money, looks stunning
This is great.
Woooooooow! Amazing technology. All along i thought you were in tokyo
waouh...brilliant...!
So they could be surrounded by anime girls and they choose not to? How uncultured of you
Pretty cool use of the tech, I'm glad Unreal Engine is getting used more outside the games industry. That being said, hire some more competent environment artists next time, the interior looks like a student piece. The tiling of the wood beams is super obvious, they haven't offset the texture when repeating the beams and there is no imperfections. Nothing in real life looks that 'perfect'. I think this could have looked a lot better and I expect future uses of this will eventually be nearly indistinguishable from real life except by a trained eye. I'm an environment artist and work in Unreal Engine for a living, so perhaps I'm in the minority of people who noticed this stuff, but I thought I'd leave the critique regardless.
I thought so too, it's impressive what they have done but it's still a long shot from perfect.
I think we're already at a point where (for a mostly static environment) the current Unreal Engine can produce a nearly photoreal result - while UE5 is impressive there isn't anything Nanite or Lumen are doing that a virtual studio like this one would really _need_ that UE4 can't produce. But as you say, and as is often the case in gamedev anyway, the issue isn't the technology it's the art. I suspect a team of experienced AAA environment artists could take this exact setup BBC have created, and create something with noticeably higher production value without increasing any of the technical requirements.
@@KillahMate Completely agree.
Wow amazing
Great video
Wow wow wow!
Great!
Love how the set is by far the most interesting part of the olympics this year
Amazing technology
Awesome
Very cool
"We'll see (most of you) soon!" -- sounds like a threat! 😉
Nice, now replicate the interior of the Death Star please.
Stunning, even the fish are fake. So clever. I love it. Congrats to the BBC.
🇬🇧🙋🏾♀️Oh my days 🤯🤯🤯👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I knew it was virtual as some one told me early on, but I kinda figured those pillars were real and they were using one of those LED walls they used for Star Wars Mandalorian
Amazing 🤔😳
They will be using the those virtual sets like they use in The Mandalorian soon I don't doubt
Very very good
cool amazing
Could we get one of the backgrounds for Teams or Zoom meetings?
"We'll see *MOST* of you soon." Clever. Very clever haha
What was clever?
@@NeoJackBauer That most people will survive Covid.
Lack of shadows on the runway gave it away, that and the fact that no one was complaining about the cost of flying presenters and guests halfway round the world, and setting up a state of the art studio on the roof of a skyscraper in downtown Tokyo.
And did BBC pay royalties to the writers to the Ghost in The Shell soundtrack?
"Look at the detail!"
Finally I too can own a Sega Dreamcast.
Unreal Engine powered this? Looks amazing 🙌
Figured it must have been UE4. Great technical achievement
From Tokyo the games of the 32nd Olympiad coverage on the BBC
Can't wait to see the climbing event near that life-sized transformers statue
Illusions shattered
I really thought they were in Tokyo
Sam’s pretty good at presenting considering she relatively new to it 👍🏻
Ah man, I would have put up a different location every time (in different countries...Hi Chicago!, Hi Athens!, Hi Vancouver!, etc...) & finally to spill the beans I would've put up a lunarscape (Hi Mars!).
2:36 so that's where all the 3090s went
Mind blowing! I didn’t know the unreal engine could be so life like
that was neat
This is like when morpheus told neo about the matrix.
Woo very clever. I understand the restrictions but I one of the the millions who thought it was done in Tokyo. Very clever 👍
por favor cuelguen la entrevista de tom daley de hace una semana pero con subtitulos gracias
Took me a few days to realise, the synchronised swimming fish (see what I did) gave it away. Funnily enough, I thought the floor was CG because it seemed to not be static when the camera moved..
"Welcome to BBC Port"
😂 😂 😂
