The immersive nature of horror, fantasy, and sci-fi worlds continues to draw the attention of our collective imaginations and transport audiences on faraway and fantastical escapes. This panel, presented by the Directors Guild of Canada in Ontario, provides an inside look at the post-production teams who craft these narratives by shaping atmosphere and holding tension and suspense. Picture, sound, and VFX creatives discuss creating chilling effects on-screen, bringing authenticity to a fictional world, and the future best practices of genre world building.
