At IBC 2021, MultiCAM was going to present the OpenDays installation to the public. The ideal example of an immersion studio in a reduced space, using LED panels.
The "OpenDays" installation presented by multiCAM is a virtual studio created by projection on an LED wall. With a floor of 4 square meters, and 3 cameras including one on a dolly and another on a telescopic column, this installation is a good example of immersion with a minimum of space.
This installation has several advantages that set it apart from the market:
- Easy to use
- Minimal operators (2 are enough)
- Flexibility to adapt
- The lighting is natural and not polluted by a green screen. Finally, the talent can be seen in the space and can interact comfortably with the environment.
It consists of 3 MultiCAM products:
-
ENVIRONNEMENT MAPPED ON LED:BACKDROP
-
ROBOTIC SYSTEMS: SPIRIT Line
-
CENTRALIZED AND INTUITIVE CONTROL: PILOT
