NantStudios

Believe it or not, NantStudios is now more than 12 years old, but the past 12 months has seen us grow faster than ever before. We’ve gone from one country to two. And from one volume to three; including the world’s biggest. But that’s not what we’re most proud of. We’re most proud that we’ve also built the best teams to operate them. Soon, we’ll have even more exciting developments to share, but first, we thought it would be good to catch you up on what we’ve been up to, and introduce you to some of the people behind it all. Check out the video below, featuring Chris Williams, Gary Marshall, Keaton Heinrichs, Oscar Knott, Bryan Brown, Sophie Taylor, Nick Murphy and Karl Johnstone. If you need anything, or have any questions about Virtual Production, please reach out to any of us here at NantStudios; anytime. #virtualproduction #icvfx Inquiries - Nathan Bazley

Here at NantStudios, we’ve made a lot of noise recently about our LED volumes. But without something to put on them, they aren’t all that useful.. So below, you can check out some of the awesome work to come out of our Art Department. Our AD was built from the ground up to be Realtime native. Our pipeline and all of our processes are built around what we know works best within that space – because for us – it’s not an afterthought, it’s a way of life. NantStudios Art Department creates realistic environments built and optimized for the rigors of Virtual Production and tested to perfectly integrate with our facilities and systems. But they also love designing hyper-stylized characters, engaging vignettes, cutscenes and polished digital sets for broadcast.

Some background on why we built our new Dynamic Volume System, from Director of Business Development, Nathan Bazley. #virtualproduction #icvfx #dvs

Forget everything you know about what an LED volume should look like - and what it can do.   This is our Dynamic Volume System (DVS), a revolutionary approach to In-Camera Visual Effects (ICVFX) that we've developed to redefine flexibility & efficiency for Film & TV, as well as advertising, broadcast, e-sports, and more.   For the first time, DVS allows LED volumes to dynamically reconfigure to cater to precise creative needs, through a combination of advanced motors, omni-directional wheels, and self-leveling sensors.   The patented system is comprised of ‘wallPods’, each varying in length & curvature, which can be connected into numerous configurations. That means the same wallPods can form a range of LED shapes, or even be split into multiple smaller volumes. They can even be ‘driven’ to different stages on a studio lot, or into storage, with their capacity to navigate inclines and declines.   In doing this, DVS alleviates the biggest point of friction for the creative teams wanting to use VP, and for the operators wanting to offer it as a service. Using DVS, scenes and sets no longer need to be designed to fit within one specific configuration, and operators can deploy it far more quickly and flexibly.   The first installation of DVS is now live at our El Segundo studio, with an official unveiling scheduled for January 13th, 2025.   The launch of DVS also marks the debut of NantStudios Design + Deliver.   Drawing from our extensive experience building & operating advanced Virtual Production infrastructure, including the world’s largest LED volume in Melbourne, Australia, Design + Deliver will provide game-changing tools like DVS to the market, alongside other innovations developed at NantStudios & its sister company, General Lift. Design + Deliver can also establish temporary LED volumes in any region.   Keaton Heinrichs, NantStudios Vice President of Business Development and Operations:   “NantStudios’ excels at engineering tailored solutions to complex production challenges. We don’t sell one-size-fits-all packages. Instead, we assess your space, clients and needs, to craft a facility that distills our expertise and empowers you to succeed. Our extensive supplier network, combined with continuous R&D and rigorous product testing, ensures you get the best equipment at the best price.”   “DVS was designed not only to address creative challenges but also to make the financial aspect of using this technology more accessible, offering a more cost-effective solution compared to traditional ‘pop-up’ style volumes and shooting on location. This offers benefits for our clients and their customers: the LED walls can be rented either as individual components or as a complete solution, providing greater flexibility to maximizing their investment and enabling projects to access the technology at a variety of price points and tailored options.”   Please reach out to Nathan Bazley if you'd like to know more! #virtualproduction #productiontechnology
