VR Video/Scene Production
In addition to having practitioners with experience in Development, Production, and Post-Production in traditional 360 Video (what was once referred to as "VR Movies" our team also have Engineers, Artists, and Producers who are now working with 6DoF VR scenes.
​
We use the power of Unreal Engine and Quixel to create virtual "Scenes" that allow for the full freedom of movement within the scene, whether that be via virtual camera or viewer PoV.
​
We are committed to providing 6DoF virtual experiences moving forward as we believe that is the future of full Immersive Storytelling.
​
​
​
​
​
We also produce our virtual scenes as an MR/AR asset, using ARKit, ARcode, Depthkit, and other compatible hardware such as Magic Leap. Whether it be an entire stageplay on your coffee table or the view from space outside your windows.
​
* 6DoF VR allows a person to move around the scene and change their perspective, they can look under the table, behind the person in front of them or simply move to the other side of the room to get a better look/eavesdrop on "the action".
​
** We work only on Passive experiences, where the viewer is an observer who is able to move anywhere, but unable to change anything. However, we can refer you to other studios if you need a participatory or interactive story.

MR AR Video/Scene Production
Volumetric Video Production
While Photogrammetry and 3d modelling can create non-living photo-realistic assets for use in VR, AR and MR (they can also be very useful in traditional 2d post-production) they cannot replicate human beings (and even some animal's such as dogs can be unconvincing.
This is when Volumetric Capture technology comes in.
​
Our engineers and producers can help guide you through the capture of a single elements (such as your leading man/lady) or even a complex scene with multiple actors, props and effects (like the one to the right, captured at Intel Studios in LA).
These assets can then be easily integrated into VR, AR, MR, or even traditional VFX pipelines in Post Production (a popular offering, allowing the team the freedom to reposition camera and actors around a scene; essentially modifying the blocking in Post).

If you don't need a full 3d hologram of your performer, or you're delivering to a 2d medium, or are looking for a real-time live visual composition; then your best option at the moment is virtual cameras and studios/sets.
​
Using the same technology that we use to create the photorealistic virtual scenes for VR we can create a virtual set or studio for your production. You can then have multiple cameras shooting many angles of your talent in a greenscreen studio while monitoring and/or live broadcasting the completed composed shot.
​
With new modern tracking solutions we can have operators move the camera naturally with matching movement from the virtual elements.
Our new virtual camera integration also allows the DoP to operate a physical camera with all of the controls replicated in the virtual set; ASA, focal length and aperture are all replicated on the virtual camera.
​
The elevation, pitch, roll, yaw, tilt, and physical location are all tracked and the virtual camera is moved on the scene.
​
We can merge the Physical and the virtual worlds in real-time.
