The technology used in the ANR Virtual Production Stage is cutting-edge, featuring a high-brightness, curved LED wall spanning 60 ft in width and 20 ft in height, a 2.3 mm dot-pitch, an ultra-high refresh rate, and a wide colour gamut. Top-of-the-line AOTO LED displays, state-of-the-art camera tracking using Stype’s RedSpy, and powerful, custom-built rendering systems using Unreal Engine allow for real-time rendering of complex photorealistic virtual locations. Filmmakers can now seamlessly blend real and virtual elements and shoot scenes in various locations worldwide without the need to physically relocate. They also have the ability to manipulate weather and lighting to their liking, giving them greater creative control.
