Metashima is Dimension’s Web3 entertainment experience centred around unique and customisable virtual AI robots. Our expert real-time team designed and animated the Metashima, bringing them to life inside their hi-tech virtual facility - The MAG.

From the first visual concept to extensive storyworlds, our team brings the biggest ideas to life. Our Production Visualisation Demo explores Dimension's visualisation capabilities.

Visualisation helps directors, producers, DPs and production designers make informed decisions about camera angles, lighting, set design and aesthetics, in the first steps of the filmmaking process.

Look out for our Production Visualisation Demo, set to be released in early 2024.

Production Visualisation Demo

Pushing character tools to new levels, we unveiled our MetaAlien at Goodwood Festival of Speed's Future Lab from July 13th to 16th, where visitors had the opportunity to interact with MetaHuman characters in a live demo.

Visitors actively engaged in realtime puppeteering with two MetaHuman characters. 

MetaHuman is an incredible tool for creating high-quality, realistic virtual humans and while it is primarily unmatched in recreating familiar faces, it also opens up remarkable possibilities for creating fantastical and stylised characters.

Future Lab: Stylised MetaHumans

We collaborated with Eva Herzigová and her talent agency Unsigned to take a fashion-forward step into virtual worlds - enabling the supermodel to take ownership of her digital identity.

Eva was scanned and her MetaHuman avatar was crafted by our character artists, who styled her virtual clothing, hair, makeup and movement.

As a MetaHuman, Eva is ready for endless real-time possibilities - from modelling digital wearables in virtual fashion shows to immersive VR or 3D browser-based experiences to games and live broadcasts to traditional editorial.

AKUMA is an atmospheric short demonstrating the capability of Unreal Engine’s MetaHuman tool for storytelling.

Written and directed by Dimension creative director Rob McLellan, AKUMA was created in collaboration with Vicon, who provided mocap and Shōgun software.

AKUMA: A MetaHuman Short Film 

ABE VR is a cinematic VR experience based on the multi-award-winning short film, by Rob McLellan, and is the first ever virtual reality experience to be officially certified by the British Board of Film Classification.

Created in Unreal Engine, ABE is a virtual recreation of the original short film about a misguided robot seeking the unconditional love of humans… at whatever cost.

The film explores the emotional connection and heightened sense of empathy that VR delivers as a storytelling medium – using new techniques to enhance the feeling of presence, such as the eye tracking between ABE and us as a character.
