shaping an industry one idea at a time
how we innovate
Our team is constantly developing new products and solutions. Many of the current standards in virtual production were created in our labs and in collaboration with the companies that provide essential gear to the industry. We are serious about the role technological innovation plays in shaping the future of content creation.
New Product Development
We are always searching for new ways to improve our industry. From creating smaller products designed for tracking, monitors, and mounts, to building large scale solutions in rigging and trussing; if there’s a way to improve a process, we’ll find it.
higher education
By partnering with educational institutions, we can come alongside and mentor students as they pursue careers in virtual production. Giving students practical experience through internships, workshops, and interactive lectures is a top priority for Optic8 in navigating this ever-evolving industry. We are proud to invest the next generation of innovators.
industry workshops
Hosting industry workshops is crucial for increasing the awareness and adoption of virtual production techniques in the film and commercial production markets. We provide a hands-on learning environment where professionals can directly interact with and experience the latest advancements. By taking the mystery out of new technology, we are making virtual production less intimidating and more accessible to those who will benefit most from it.
testing partnerships
We are hardware agnostic. We won’t put our clients in a box by selling them products that don’t fit their needs. Our product expertise is a direct result of developing unbiased relationships with manufacturers all over the world. Our consistent testing methods and impartial evaluations help manufacturers refine their product offerings and raise industry standards.
custom servers
Wired Bull, an industry-leading server was developed and optimized by our team to specifically handle the demanding workloads in Virtual Production studios. Each server is configurable to the specific needs of our clients and passes rigorous QC and performance tests by Puget Systems and Wired Bull prior to delivery. Learn more about Wired Bull.
CONTENT CREATION
Dynamic content is key to quality storytelling. In the spirit of providing tools to further the virtual production industry, we formed a team of virtual content developers to help meet the needs of productions with varying budget sizes. We can assist with wall content creation including plates, 2.5D, and full Unreal Engine scenes.
