Three ways a location reaches the stage
Here is how it works if you have never shot virtual production. The location is a photoreal virtual set that appears around your talent live, in camera, on our stage. You see the finished shot on the monitor while you film. 250+ of those locations are ready to load in the set library. If your scene needs a place that is not among them, our in-house set builders and artists build it. If it needs a real place, we capture it with CastleVision, our patented method for filming a real place, with its real light and movement, and bringing it onto the stage, so actors perform inside it and the camera can move as if it were there.
That includes your own restaurant, bank, store or office, rebuilt exactly and arranged for filming, so the business never has to close. You shoot it in Burbank or Albuquerque, and the whole library comes with the booking, so the recreated location is one scene in a studio that can be a courtroom or the Oval Office the same afternoon.
250+ virtual sets ready now. Load any of them in seconds, change them between setups, and dress the foreground with real furniture and props.
In-house set builders and artists create any location you can describe, from a reference, a floor plan, a sketch or an idea. Imagined places included.
CastleVision, our patented capture method, records a real location, nearly anywhere in the world, with its real light and movement and replays it on stage. Including yours.

Real places rebuilt, imagined places built
Places a crew could not get on the day: a working Paris roadway, a private home, a landmark across the country, a city fifty years from now. Tap any tile to play with sound.
Already on the shelf
Restaurants, banks and stores that will not close for a shoot, cities an ocean away, and rooms nobody gets permission to film. Start from one of these and we tailor it, or send us yours and we recreate it.
Check availability
A photo, an address, a floor plan or a line from the script is enough. A producer replies with whether it is already in the library, what a build or capture involves, and availability at both studios.

Locations nobody can get
A commercial needs a day in the dining room. The dining room needs the lunch rush. We recreate the restaurant exactly, then configure it for filming: the wall that was in the way is gone, the window faces the light, and the restaurant never closes.
Security says no, insurance says no, the branch manager says no. The lobby, the counters and the vault door are recreated on stage, with no customers, no guards and no restrictions on where the camera goes.
Retail does not shut for production. The aisles, the fixtures and the signage are rebuilt as a virtual set, dressed with real product in the foreground, and shot at whatever hour the schedule needs.
A European square, a coastline, a street in another country. CastleVision captures the real place with its real light and movement and replays it on stage, so the company never travels and the sun never moves.

Browse the set library by room before you ask for a build: restaurant sets, store and shop sets, office sets and city street sets. Everything in our standing set library reloads for pickups months later.
Configured for filming, not for customers
Walls that block the camera come out; the room keeps its look.
Windows face the light the DP wants, at the hour the script wants, for as long as the day runs.
The camera moves inside the location on an encoded crane or dolly, and more than one camera can shoot it at once.
Real furniture, product and props are dressed in the foreground, so talent touches something solid.
The composite is finished in camera on the day. The shot the director approves on the monitor is the shot.
Nothing to strike. The location is saved and can be loaded again for pickups, a second spot or a sequel.
The same approach runs across formats: a client’s store for a commercial studio rental, a location a feature cannot get on a film studio rental, the HQ lobby for corporate video, or a film’s own set, captured before it is struck, for the press junket. A captured place can also be one of the looks in a music video studio day.
Questions
Check whether the place is already in the library, see how a real place is captured, and pick the studio.
Send the location, the format and your dates. A producer replies with how it gets on camera and availability at both studios.
