Why choose LED over green

Forget the pitfalls of chroma key. Here’s what virtual production unlocks for your project:

  • Real lighting & reflections: Your talent, products, and sets interact truly with the virtual environment.
  • Reduced post burden: Composite less, fix less, iterate less. What you shoot is often what you deliver.
  • Multiple locations, zero travel: Shoot a jungle, a cityscape, and a moonlit skyline, all in one day
  • Seamless reshoots & continuity: Reload the same environment and lighting setup instantly.
  • Better actor performance & immersion: Because the scene is visible, reactions and eye-lines improve.
  • Lower carbon, lower cost: Cut travel, waste, crew moves, and location fees. More sustainable shoots.
  • Real-time creative control: Make environmental changes mid-shoot: adjust lighting, framing, mood live.
  • Green Screening Perfection: No green spill, more natural skin and product highlights.

What you can achieve here

  • Executive interviews and thought-leadership pieces with a consistent  premium look.
  • Product demos and cinematic launches with controllable lighting and hero angles.
  • Creative storytelling content including short films, features and music videos.

Recent work

Hero Films

A compact interview and product set captured on the LED wall with live look development in Unreal Engine. The team locked lighting and background continuity on set, which reduced pick-ups and shortened the edit.

Conor McClain - Inner Demons

A stylised performance piece that used tracked camera moves and interactive light for a cohesive look. The virtual environment provided realistic reflections and controlled colour so the final grade stayed consistent.

‘Snake Attack’ Advertisement

A fast-turnaround product spot created without location moves. The LED volume delivered repeatable hero angles and reflections, making approvals quicker and post-production simpler.

Talk Show Package

A pilot talk show format produced with multi-camera capture and a branded virtual backdrop. The setup was designed for repeatability so future episodes can match framing, lighting and tone with minimal setup time.

FAQs

Is crew included?

Dry hire means the space and all listed equipment are included. You bring your own crew and additional kit where needed.  Please discuss your custom project with us for production support, bringing on board additional crew and equipment as well as artiste.

Is virtual production more expensive than green screen?

Not here - this is often the opposite. The time, error risk, VFX burden, and location costs of green screen can exceed your LED studio rate. Here, you’re getting in-camera realism and savings in post.

Can we still use green screen?

Absolutely. Our LED system supports hybrid workflows: seamless switch to green/pin modes when needed.

Can we film multi-camera?

Yes. The stage supports single, dual and triple-camera setups.

Do you support production sound?

Yes. We can accommodate production sound and will advise on mic placement and treatment in the room.

How are files delivered?

We hand over media at wrap and provide guidance on formats for your edit and delivery. There is also our cloud option where you get access to our Client-Only cloud system for a limited time to upload and download your assets.
