In the Spring of this year, we were so excited to hear the news that industry leading, carbon neutral, independent film and TV production facility The VECTAR Project had launched two brand new state of the art virtual studios in our hometown of Greater Manchester, at its base in Heaton Mersey, Stockport.
The VECTAR Project is the first independent and self-funded studio to bring this game-changing film and television production technology to the North West, and when Managing Director Tom Henderson approached us to help get the word out about his wonderful new facilities, we were more than happy to help spread the news.
Offering a vital service for commercial use, film and television production and even live events, such as virtual conferences, which will be available and accessible to producers of all sizes, the newly refurbished studios offer real time virtual production, which combines live action footage and CGI or photo real backgrounds in real time, using a variety of different techniques.
The VECTAR Project’s ambition to offer no-energy filming, is incredibly exciting for the industry and with the new studios this can be delivered not only by its real-time virtual sets, but by further green enhancements such as LED lighting powered by the sun, paperless production and virtual attendance for producers.
We were absolutely delighted to be able to share the news for Tom exclusively in one of the biggest TV trade titles in the UK, Broadcast in May 2021, where the team shared an excellent piece on the new facilities in their weekly tech newsletter.
In the following days, we went on to achieve further coverage across a variety of other trade press including TV trade titles Prolific North and Televisual, plus local Manchester title About Manchester and business title The Business Desk also shared the news.
So far VECTAR Project has worked with a host of impressive clients including BBC, ITV, Netflix, Universal, Amazon Prime and has helped to deliver content for TV shows including Big Talk Productions’ Cold Feet, Saffron Cherry’s ‘The World According to Grandpa’, which how our team was introduced to Tom.
The VECTAR Project has so many exciting productions in the pipeline and we are looking forward to working with Tom and the rest of the team in the near future. If you would like to find out more information on The Vectar Project and to book the studio, please visit: vectarproject.co.uk
