disguise announces the launch of Virtual Production Workflows, a free virtual production course available to anyone online on disguise Learn.

Creatives who complete the course will be awarded an online certificate, and for anyone who wants to go further by getting hands-on in a volume, disguise also offers the on-set Virtual Production Accelerator learning experience in LA, New York, the UK, and Barcelona.
