MovieChrome moves forward with Absen
- Details
Based in the creative centre, in Milan, MovieChrome has established itself as an innovative video production house, launching its tabletop department back in 2018, which has since become a benchmark service in the international special effects market. With six studios, a video/audio equipment rental service, and a team of high-end professionals, the company has a strong pedigree offering competitive and progressive services to its clients. Its latest evolution has seen the launch of the MovieChrome Pixel Reality Studio, an impressive, purpose-built studio complete with Absen’s latest LED, the PR series, designed specifically for VP.
“Going into the project, we wanted our virtual production setup to be state-of-the-art, really push the boundaries and enhance our filmmaking capabilities,” explains Edoardo Mari, partner and executive producer at MovieChrome Milan. “We chose to work with Absen due to their reputation for delivering high-quality, reliable LED solutions tailored for the film industry. The Pixel Reality LED wall really stood out for its exceptional image quality and the flexibility it offered for various types of production.”
The setup now consists of 75sq.m of Absen’s PR 2.5 with a striking curved LED display as its centrepiece, and an LED ceiling designed to expand the creative digital canvas. The Absen team worked closely with MovieChrome’s technical team, customising the setup so it was strategically positioned in the main production studios, maximising space efficiency and enhancing the visual depth of the virtual sets.
“We have seen a transformative change in our production service capabilities. The LED wall has enabled us to create more immersive and visually stunning scenes, significantly expanding the creative possibilities for our filmmakers. The collaboration between Absen and our team played a key role in ensuring our new LED seamlessly integrated with our existing technology, making the transition very smooth,” comments Edoardo.
“We are extremely proud to have worked with MovieChrome to bring their new VP studio to life. Our advanced PR series panels utilised in MovieChrome’s meticulously designed studio has crafted an incredible space to foster the creativity and vision of filmmakers and content creators. It is a true testament to MovieChrome’s identity as not just a service provider, but as innovators and enablers of the next generation of cinematic storytelling,” says Max Xiao, regional manager of Southern Europe, Absen.
