Which stage fits your shoot?
Studio A is the choice to discuss when your brief needs a large LED canvas and cinematic staging. Studio B brings the virtual set into a more compact environment with three LED surfaces. Its published technical package documents a 7 × 4 m wall, 4.5 × 3.5 m floor and 2.4 × 1.013 m desk. Share camera positions, lens choices and required framing with the stage team before selecting a stage.
What should happen before the shoot?
Start with the shots and the environments they require. Review whether assets already exist, what needs to be built, and how the environment should react to camera movement. Plan time to test tracking, camera settings, lighting and scene playback together. This helps the team establish a practical workflow for your specific production.
LED volume or a traditional stage?
An LED volume can put the digital environment in the frame and give talent a visible scene to work with. A traditional cyc or set build can be a better fit for other creative needs. Goal Line also offers Studio C, a separate facility with a curved cyc wall, sound room and control room. Discuss the treatment with the team to choose the appropriate approach.
Questions before you book
Can we bring our own crew and virtual environments?
Yes. Bring your production team and discuss your content pipeline with Goal Line during preproduction. The team can also help with crew referrals and technical planning. Confirm asset compatibility and operator requirements before the shoot.
How much does an LED volume rental cost?
Quotes depend on stage, dates, equipment, crew, virtual content and support requirements. Send a brief with the number of shoot and prep days, your camera plan and the environments you need. Goal Line provides a project-specific quote.
