Frequently Asked Questions
What is volumetric capture?
Volumetric capture records a performance from all angles simultaneously using dozens of synchronized cameras. This creates true 3D video that can be viewed from any angle—not just a flat 2D recording.
How is it different from motion capture?
Motion capture records movement data applied to CG characters. Volumetric capture records the actual appearance of performers—their faces, costumes, and movements—as viewable 3D video, no CG characters needed.
What are common applications?
Volumetric video is used for VR/AR experiences, holographic displays, immersive documentaries, music performances, game cinematics, and anywhere viewers want to move around and through recorded scenes.
What are the wardrobe considerations?
Certain patterns and materials can challenge volumetric reconstruction. We advise on costume choices during pre-production—generally solid colors and matte fabrics work best, though modern systems handle more variety.
What formats can you deliver?
We can deliver volumetric content in various formats including point clouds, mesh sequences, and compressed volumetric video formats. Delivery format depends on your target platform and playback requirements.
Where are volumetric stages in France?
France has access to volumetric capture facilities through partnerships with European studios. We coordinate stage access, technical crews, and all aspects of volumetric production.
