“System integration is key to maximise the benefit of a versatile VR studio infrastructure”

It is clear that a thought-through system integration is key to maximise the benefit of the VR studio infrastructure. A clever integration of VR studios in existing or new-built facilities result in a flexible and versatile usage in daily business – for different productions. Using IP-based infrastructures and remote production workflows multiply the outcome of investing in VR studio technology.

RMIT University

“Utilizing latest virtual studio technology to educate the top talents for broadcast and media industry.”

RMIT University in Melbourne has adopted Reality Engine technology in 2018 and since then, it boasts state-of-the-art facilities, fostering opportunities for students and industry alike. The Media Precinct has nurtured an exciting collaboration between RMIT’s School of Media and Communication and the “Stripy Sock Club”, a children’s TV program produced by 1440 Productions. The partnership involved 1440 shooting the pilot for the program (and the entire series later) in RMIT’s studios, while providing exciting opportunities for RMIT students to be part of the crew on set.
