VISION

The Magic of Baseball

Fox Sports 2nd annual “Field of Dreams” game is all about celebrating the game of baseball, so we teamed up with NVIDIA to create a historic, unforgettable sports moment for live fans and viewers at home. Using groundbreaking AI & machine learning, we set out to honor the remarkable legacy of prolific sports announcer Harry Caray, bringing him back to the booth for one more magical performance in stunning real-time AR. But we didn’t stop there; we also recreated 9 more legendary baseball icons for an inspirational opening segment that followed a young boy who comes face to face with his baseball heroes. By using NVIDIA’S advanced AI and rendering technologies, we were able to develop a new approach to digital character animation allowing us to rapidly animate facial expressions without the need for rigging. This activation was a home-run with audiences, and a testament to the power of technology to create real-life magic.
