- Kia ora we’re The Granary,
An Indie Production Company based in Wellington, New Zealand.
We had the opportunity to test out Indie Virtual Production utilising an EPIC Unreal Engine pipeline on an LED screen wall supplied by Streamliner. Sound stage at Avalon Studios.
Live camera tracking was achieved using an HTC VIVE Pro Eye.
Inspired by the work of ILM on the Mandalorian and with a special thanks to Matt Workman for leading the charge by showing Indie filmmakers what’s possible.
We wanted to see what was possible within an indie “Live 3D” Virtual Production Environment. With 48 hours and a small crew we tested how the latest LED screen tech coupled with Unreal Engine Virtual Production workflows can empower low budget indie filmmaking.
With special thanks to Streamliner for allowing us use of their screens, Avalon Studios for the sound stage and Rocket Rentals for the camera equipment.

Absolutely lovely! It's great seeing indie filmmakers put this technology to good work, and especially in NZ! Hopefully this helps the local crews grow to bigger and bigger things :)
Kia ora Alice, we hope this helps our local filmmakers achieve their dreams too! Appreciate your support :)
The physical elements on set really sell it. Great work!
Thank you!!! :)
This is so so exciting! Can’t wait to see what the future holds here and what new worlds are made ✨
Yay! Thank you!!! We are super excited too! :)
Great work, exciting to see what happens next.
Thanks Andrew! We can't wait either - appreciate your support :)
@@TheGranary Anytime. If I can help in any way, let me know.
Wow, this is awesome Amber. Thanks for sending the link - so cool to see more of what you guys work on :)
Kia ora Riann, appreciate the support! Ngā mihi maioha :)
Nice work Granary! This looks and sounds great.
Stoked you like it! Appreciate :)
WOW That is so exciting! I can't wait to find a way to put this in my music videos! :) nice work!!
We look forward to seeing what you do! We're keen on implementing the tech into music videos too! Lots of exciting creativity to be had :)
Awesome work friends, specially for doing beautiful work without a genlock system. I'm very happy to see you moving in to VP. We are disruptors!
Thanks Wesley, you noticed no genlock system ;) Working towards that - but for now testing with what we have available as Indie filmmakers :)
Hi Guys, Awesome video.... it's posible to genlock with the HTC vive and Leds? or you need a better solution such as mo-sys?
Holy Moly this is amazing :)
Thank you so much! :)
This looks amazing! Really looks like the future. Amazing for proving concepts which I imagine is going to land you guys a lot of business. And in real time?! Stop it.
Thanks man appreciate it, we definitely think this is the future, massive potential and we are just scratching the surface
Any chance you can comment on what it costs to build what you have? It's interesting that you have an attainable version compared to big sets like the Mandalorian.
such exciting tech!
Oh yes it really is! :)
Freakin Epic!!
Humbled thanks from us all :)
It is the same idea of The Volume from Industrial Light and Magic nice tech.
Thanks Mark, it is! On the indie scale of course, but the idea is the same :)
This is so amazing!!!
Looks amazing!
Thank you :)
Amazing work! Keep it up guys, Reposted!
Thanks Joe - your support means so much! Plus we're huge fans of your work :) #inspiring
Nice!
Thank you :)
What led panels did you use for this project?
Dude uhh unboxing video using this tech
Podcast shows
1000000000000000x better 👍
Wow great stuff 🙄
Hehehe - we appreciate you liking us ;)
I need to know how to make this at home...
We did this all at home first on our 4K TV during lockdown. We've been busy building our start up but we so want to share more on our channel - we hope to be able to do this soon!
Where can I buy these panels
Ohh dammnnnnnn.. what do you need and how do we help you get it?!
We have found you on FB and we will engage - love what you guys are doing for your local community :)
So for use with Unreal - which camera tracking system is the best way to go? HTC Vive seems like a huge pain to set up, Vanishing point looks good as far as options geared towards camera work ...Anti latency seems the easiest to set up... A little help deciding? lol
Its a pretty hard job to nail color calibration in under 48hours. Without an alexa as well. You also might have more luck checking your genlock field as it is causing distance distortions. Looking great tho :)
We agree! Unfortunately we didn't have the $$$ to genlock this with a quadro card and have yet to try a camera with a global shutter but that's definitely next on our list :)
What software are you using and do you have tutorials?
How did you guys work around the corner bend of the led?
The fact none of this was show outside blows my mind.
Awesome - that's super encouraging :)
Yours heartily share recommend
Awww shucks! Appreciate :)
This is certainly the future ! Awesome work !
How much are those LED walls though ?
Just a guess, but probably a few hundred thousand! The tiny LED tech has been gaining a lot of momentum, its a matter of time before consumers could purchase their own.
just use unreal engine or with software like aximmetry ??
Kia ora Adie, just using Unreal Engine here. But we are keen to try out Aximmetry in the future :)
Where do you start with building a led panel studio like that?
You start by questionning your life choices first...
Anyone have a link to a how-to video for this? Like how to set up or even where and what components to buy. I will be very grateful for any help. Thanks.
We are working on this! Still in our early days but definitely something on our radar :)
