Los Angeles / Virtual production

Virtual production
that serves the performance.

Third Space develops real-time and screen-based environments around the people on camera. We connect creative development, scene preparation, camera language, lighting, performer blocking, playback and capture so the digital world feels like part of the show—not a layer added after it.

What you can book

Four useful starting points.

01 / Performance

Live music environment

A responsive visual world for an artist, DJ, musician or creator performing live or recording a finished session.

02 / Brand

Presentation or launch set

A designed environment for a product reveal, keynote, interview or recurring branded format.

03 / Series

Repeatable creator world

A visual system that can change between episodes without rebuilding the entire physical set.

04 / Test

Look development and proof

A focused camera, lighting and scene test before committing a larger production to the approach.

The approach

The environment is
part of the direction.

A convincing virtual production begins with framing, movement and performance. We decide what the audience needs to believe, then build the camera, lighting and playback workflow around that result.

What we bring together

A practical scope.
Clear ownership.

01

Creative development

Define the visual idea, references, audience experience and the moments where the environment must change.

02

Scene and content pipeline

Prepare real-time scenes, playback media and versions that can be tested before the production day.

03

Camera planning

Choose useful lenses, angles, movement and compositions around the relationship between subject and environment.

04

Lighting and blocking

Light the performer and stage for the final composite while keeping movement natural and repeatable.

05

Playback and cues

Connect visual changes to the run of show, rehearsals and an operator who owns each cue.

06

Capture and delivery

Record the finished program and any clean sources required for edits, alternate versions or social delivery.

Who it is for

A strong fit when the world needs to change without losing the live energy.

The environment is part of the story, not just a background.

Several looks are needed within one production window.

The performer must react to a live visual or timed cue.

Camera, lighting and digital content need one shared plan.

The team wants to test the visual approach before scaling it.

Typical deliverables

A tested visual system, not an unproven scene file.

The exact handoff depends on the project, but a typical scope can include look development, scene or playback preparation, camera and lighting tests, a cue plan, on-set operation, the recorded program and selected source recordings.

  • Creative treatment and visual references
  • Prepared real-time scenes or playback media
  • Camera, lighting and performer-blocking plan
  • Rehearsal and cue documentation
  • Live operation and technical supervision
  • Program recording and agreed source files

Virtual production FAQ

Do we need to arrive with a finished virtual environment?

No. Bring the idea, references and required moments. We can help determine whether the right answer is a real-time scene, designed playback, a hybrid physical set or a simpler production technique.

Can virtual production be used for a live stream?

Yes. The environment can be incorporated into a live broadcast when the scene, render, playback and backup plan have been tested for the required duration and delivery format.

Can we test the look before booking the full production?

Yes. A focused proof day can answer the expensive questions: lensing, camera movement, lighting, subject separation, latency and whether the visual idea reads on screen.

Do you provide the physical studio and crew too?

Yes. The scope can combine the room, cameras, lighting, production crew, live audio, playback, recording and post-production around the visual environment.
