ADFEST 2026 Workshop: BUILT FOR THE BIG SCREEN

​ABOUT THE BUILT FOR THE BIG SCREEN: Crafting Human+ Visuals for Massive Performance Spaces

​What does it take for a CG team to build visuals for a venue like the Sphere in Las Vegas, where the “screen” spans 160,000 square feet of LED, wraps around 18,000 people, and still feels intimate and human?

​As part of the extended creative and production ecosystem behind Sphere’s large-scale shows, including the Backstreet Boys’ Into The Millennium residency visuals and Anyma’s The End of Genesys, Juice’s CG supervisors and artists helped bring ambitious visual concepts to life. In this workshop, they reveal the craft thinking and technical problem-solving behind translating emotion and performance into an immersive environment.

​This hands-on workshop is designed for creative directors and producers who want to think beyond the flat frame, understand the craft behind massive-format storytelling, and explore how to implement this kind of work in their own project.
