“We’re extremely proud to be joining forces with Vū to bring the entire industry a valuable asset, and one which we believe, will be a catalyst for growth for virtual production across the UK and Europe.”
Tim Moore, CEO of Vū, added: “We created the Vū Network because artistic expression and immersive storytelling are fleeting - moving faster than the speed of thought - and we don’t want anyone excluded from this experience.
“The Vū Network is a way for us to scale our expertise and knowledge to ensure that artists everywhere can take advantage of everything that virtual production has to offer today - limitless storytelling, limitless possibilities, limitless creativity.
“Cube Studio is the embodiment of everything we believe in - they are a team of creatives, storytellers and innovators who are perfectly poised to continue what we started in North America and bring a standard of excellence to virtual production to the UK and Europe.”
Roy Kimani, co-founder and director of innovation for Cube Studio, commented: “Virtual production represents a new era in content creation for leading production houses and advertising agencies.
“We’re proud to be partnering with Vū to put this exciting, real-time technology into the hands of the next generation of creatives, and are looking forward to enabling production teams to push the boundaries of what’s possible.”
