BOURNEMOUTH University unveiled its “game-changing” LED wall for virtual production as it looked to build a partnership with the new Livingstone Academy.
Premium Event Productions (PEP) leant the university its large LED wall, the same type used in the production of Star Wars spin-off The Mandalorian.
And the university hoped the new technology could help Bournemouth get on the map for virtual production.
Mark Brocklehurst, director of operations for the faculty of media and communications, said: “We’re carrying out research into virtual production techniques.
“LED walls are quite common, you see them at sporting events, but it’s the technique of filming an actor in front of a scene and then using the software to deposit that in real time. We’re exploring how we can embed that technology in our courses.
