Virtual Production

Here is how this works in practice. We set up virtual production for shoots in Austria — the integration of real-time game-engine environments with live-action camera work, whether on a LED volume, with green-screen and real-time compositing, or through camera-tracked previsualisation. Virtual production shifts decisions that once belonged to post into the shoot itself: the director sees the digital world in camera, lighting interacts with the virtual environment, and the final composite is captured on the day.

Here is the breakdown. It demands a set up pipeline — environments built and optimised for real-time rendering, precise camera tracking, and a tech crew running the engine alongside the camera and lighting departments. Our teams plan and crew this work, drawing on Austria's growing virtual-production skill and the studio roads around Vienna.

Here is what that looks like on the ground. Austria's virtual-production sector is young but advancing on solid foundations. Vienna has a long studio heritage — the Rosenhügel Filmstudios, founded in 1923, and Filmstadt Wien — alongside a VFX post community and crews trained at the Filmakademie Wien who are moving into real-time and engine-based work.

Here is the short of it. Virtual production lets a project recreate Austrian alpine landscapes, imperial interiors or wholly invented environments on a controlled stage, cutting location days, weather exposure and travel. The work qualifies under the 30% ÖFI+ rebates and the FISA+ federal scheme. Regional funds such as Filmfonds Wien support studio and post-related production in Vienna.

Crews work under the Austrian Kollektivvertrag collective agreements. Our team advises on planning a virtual-production shoot so the content pipeline, the stage schedule and the funding align.
