SCENE 01 / LED WALL VIRTUAL
LED Wall Virtual Production
In-camera visual effects for your Australian production.
Here is how this works in practice. LED wall virtual production uses large LED display volumes to project real-time rendered environments behind performers, replacing traditional green screen with photorealistic in-camera backgrounds. Australia's virtual production sector has grown fast around Disney Studios Australia in Sydney, Docklands Studios in Melbourne and Village Roadshow Studios on the Gold Coast, which have hosted global features such as The Matrix and Aquaman.
Here is the short of it. We connect you with LED wall facilities and Unreal Engine teams across the country, where the VFX sector includes Netflix Animation Studios (formerly Animal Logic) in Sydney and Rising Sun Pictures in Adelaide. Our team sets up stage booking, virtual art department, real-time content creation and Producer Offset forms through Screen Australia so your production has a complete ICVFX pipeline backed by skilled Asia-Pacific crews.

LED Wall Virtual Production at Disney Studios and Village Roadshow
Here is how this works in practice. LED wall virtual production in Australia can be staged at the major studio lots, including Disney Studios Australia in Sydney.
Here is the short of it. Village Roadshow Studios on the Gold Coast is another stage option.
Here is the breakdown. Standard LED pipelines run Unreal Engine 5.4 with NDisplay multi-machine rendering, Mo-Sys StarTracker and stYpe encoded tracking, ROE Black Pearl BP2v2 and BP4 panels, full Brompton SX40 and Tessera processors, and Pixotope or disguise xR media servers, with colour-managed ACES/OCIO pipelines for matched on-set DI and final post.
Here is what that looks like on the ground. Australia's VFX sector, including Netflix Animation Studios (formerly Animal Logic) in Sydney, whose work includes the Lego films, and Framestore (formerly Iloura) in Melbourne, supplies talent for LED volume work.
Here is how the picture comes together. We set up Producer Offset 40% for features (30% for TV), Location Offset 30% (QAPE A$20M+), and PDV Offset 30% (A$500K+ PDV QAPE) forms through Screen Australia for the Producer Offset and the Office for the Arts for Location or PDV certification, with state PDV rebates from Screen NSW, VicScreen, and Screen Queensland that can stack with the federal offset. Australian crew work under MEAA agreements, with visiting crew members' home-union obligations planned for separately. Direct LA-Sydney flights on Qantas, United, and American keeps US-based VFX and virtual production talent within reach.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is LED wall virtual production?
LED wall virtual production (also called ICVFX - In-Camera Visual Effects) uses large LED displays to show real-time rendered environments behind actors. The camera captures both performers and background in-camera, giving realistic lighting and reflections.
What are the advantages over green screen?
LED walls give realistic lighting that illuminates actors naturally, capture accurate reflections in eyes and surfaces, and allow actors to see the environment they're performing in. Results are captured in-camera, reducing post-prod VFX work.
What kind of environments can you create?
Here is the breakdown. Virtually any environment—from authentic Australian locations such as the Blue Mountains, Great Barrier Reef and outback to sci-fi worlds and historical periods. Environments can be based on photogrammetry of real Australian locations or designed from scratch in Unreal Engine.
Do you have LED stages in Australia?
Here is what that looks like on the ground. Yes. We source LED volume stages for productions and can set up short-term installations at studios such as Disney Studios Australia in Sydney, Docklands Studios in Melbourne and Village Roadshow Studios on the Gold Coast when a custom setup is needed.
How does camera tracking work?
Camera tracking systems measure the camera's exact position and rotation in real-time, allowing the virtual environment to respond with correct parallax as the camera moves. This creates convincing perspective shifts.
What's involved in pre-production?
Virtual production needs major pre-production—building digital environments, planning camera moves, and tech setup. Starting early allows time to develop assets and iterate on creative decisions.
