What are virtual studios

and how do they work?

Virtual sets or studios offer the technology to completely control the environment of your production using a green screen.

Create realistic virtual backdrops to evoke a particular place, or use your creativity to conjure new and fantastical immersive worlds.

The format of the show has improved significantly. We design imaginary situations where the audience is involved, making the experience more engaging and fun. Our show’s ratings are proof that viewers enjoy the content we produce."

Anuska Simón GómezGeneral Manager at VideoReport Canarias

We found that Pixotope made the perfect bridge between the needs of live broadcasters, like us, and the abilities of ‘Unreal’. Our aim was to use this new technology within a newsroom setting to achieve a more genuine feel, whilst still using engaging visuals.  As the election is a serious topic, it was imperative that our coverage adhered to a real-world tone. We wanted to avoid using a green screen studio as we felt this would appear to distance the presenter from reality.”

FAQs

What is a virtual studio?

A virtual studio is sometimes referred to as a “green screen”.Virtual studios are one of the more common forms of virtual production. By keying out the green screen around the talent, the virtual environment can be controlled and manipulated in real-time to have greater relevance to the content while remaining visually interesting. This gives producers total control over what kind of contextual information and visual content the talent is immersed in for more robust storytelling.

What is the difference between a virtual studio and a traditional studio?

Virtual Studios are often “hosted” in traditional studios but offer significant flexibility. Virtual Studios can give the impression of being far bigger than the actual physical location and also have the advantage that the set can be changed with a couple of clicks of a mouse, rather than a physical reconfiguration.

Are virtual studios and virtual sets the same?

The terms “Virtual studio” and “virtual set” are commonly interchanged.

How do virtual studios work?

Virtual Studios work by “keying” around talent and objects in the physical set and placing them in a virtual set. Solid green, or other color, backgrounds are typically used to create a reliable key.
