Lisbon, Portugal – EMAV, a leading Portuguese technical production company and part of Media Capital Group, has officially launched a state-of-the-art Virtual Production (VP XR) studio, marking a significant milestone for Portugal’s film, television, and advertising sectors. The new facility leverages Alfalite’s advanced LED technology, positioning Portugal at the forefront of the Iberian virtual production landscape.
The innovative studio features a 25x5-meter Alfalite Modularpix Pro 1.9 ORIM VP XR LED wall and an 8x5-meter Modularpix Pro 3.9 HB VP XR LED ceiling. Integrated with Pixotope’s real-time graphics engine and TrackMen camera tracking systems, this setup allows for the creation of hyper-realistic virtual environments suitable for films, TV series, commercials, music videos, and live events.
“The Alfalite panels exceeded all expectations. Their color accuracy, uniformity, and flexible brightness and contrast allowed us to work with a variety of lighting setups without sacrificing quality,” said Jorge Faria, Advisor to General Management at EMAV. “Thanks to the efficient installation by Alfalite and VANTeC’s expertise in system configuration, our first production achieved results in a fraction of the time it would have taken outdoors.”
Faria also emphasized the reliability and quality of the studio ecosystem: “The consistency of the LED panels and rendering engines impressed both our Director of Photography and Director. This tool allows us to save time and maintain full creative control over every scene shot virtually.”
Jaime Amores, Product Manager at VANTeC, highlighted the seamless integration of multiple technologies in the project: “The compatibility of Alfalite’s LED panels with Pixotope’s rendering and tracking systems ensures flawless alignment between real and virtual elements. This project is a benchmark in advanced technological collaboration.”
Alfalite was chosen for its proven quality, extensive experience in VP XR environments, and European manufacturing base. “From the outset, Alfalite demonstrated strong technical expertise and a collaborative approach, which ensured smooth system integration,” added Amores.
Luis Garrido, Executive Director of Alfalite, stated: “This installation at EMAV is a testament to European collaboration and innovation. Our displays empower creative professionals with precise, reliable, and adaptable tools. Working with VANTeC, Pixotope, Tangram Solutions, Raised by Monsters, and EMAV has been an extraordinary experience, contributing to Portugal’s leadership in next-generation production.”
The new VP XR studio reinforces Media Capital Group’s vision to consolidate its technological leadership in Portugal and expand internationally. With this versatile and scalable facility, EMAV offers filmmakers and producers a transformative space designed to meet the evolving demands of broadcast, cinematic, and digital storytelling.
