SUMMARY:Immerse UK x Imagination Virtual Production Series
DESCRIPTION:Between November 2021 and February 2022\, Immerse UK and Imagination will be joined by industry experts in a series of panel discussions and thought-leadership pieces exploring the impact of virtual production and real time content production\, each from a different perspective. \nJoin the organisers as they explore virtual production through three different lenses\, including; \nThe Future of Content\nThe benefits and impact of using a real time workflow to create content. \nThe Future of Live Experiences\nThe emerging advantages\, and challenges\, of using real time content for live experiences. \nDigital Transformation in real time\nExploring what is required to embrace realtime technologies and workflows into your organisation. \nAbout Virtual Production\nVirtual Production is more accurately described as real time content production; The process by which digital objects and environments are generated in real time using video games engines such as Unreal and Unity. The same technology that immerses you in living\, breathing\, photorealistic gaming worlds\, is now being used by filmmakers\, storytellers\, marketers and even product designers\, opening up limitless creative possibilities. \nAbout the Series\nThis series aims to demystify the technology and dig into the practical applications\, and structural\, business and cultural impact of this incredible new world\, which is and will continue to transform industries in much the same way that cloud computing and the Internet before it. \nHear from industry experts and thought leaders at the forefront of Virtual Production\, as they guide you through the latest techniques and possibilities in this exciting new space.

SUMMARY:How can the National Science and Technology Council and the Office for Science and Technology Strategy direct S&T priorities?
DESCRIPTION:In June 2021\, the Prime Minister announced the creation of a new National Science and Technology Council (NSTC)\, to “provide strategic direction on the use of science and technology as the tools to tackle great societal challenges\, level up across the country and boost prosperity around the world.” He also announced the creation of a new Office for Science and Technology Strategy (OSTS)\, to be based in the Cabinet Office\, which would “drive forward the strategy of Whitehall’s science and technology priorities from the centre”. The OSTS would be headed up by a National Technology Adviser\, and Sir Patrick Vallance was appointed as the first person in that role. \nIn this event\, FST will discuss early progress in setting up the NSTC and OSTS\, and their emerging priorities. They will also examine how these bodies will work with other structures within the UK’s science\, technology and innovation ecosystem\, including UKRI and the Government Office for Science\, and how they will engage with UK industry.
