France TV’s Culturebox utilizes Reality Engine

The great collaboration of France Télévisions & AD TV & AMP VISUAL TV created “the biggest stage in France”: Culturebox. Zero Density’s Reality Engine powered channel’s virtual studio to carry the production to the next level.

Culturebox offers numerous concerts, theater & dance shows, festivals captured in recent years in Paris, overseas, and museum visits. Shows are being recorded three days a week.

The project was put into action on the thought that the access to culture should be maintained during the surrounding circumstances of COVID-19; therefore, government-supported channel France TV invested a channel that can become a cultural hub for people at home.

Virtual studio deployed 3 Engines. For tracking technology, channel relied on Mo-Sys Engineering Ltd StarTracker, Super Techno was opted for crane, and for the camera Panasonic Broadcast & ProAV Europe AW-UE150 was trusted. Exceptional design of La Fabrique enabled audience to enjoy the content.
