Lux Machina Consulting opens UK office

Lux Machina Consulting (LuxMC), visual technology specialists based in Los Angeles, CA, has announced the opening of a new office in London. The expansion into the UK coincides with the beginning of several large Virtual Production facilities that LuxMC will be engineering, installing and integrating in the coming year.  

Co-CEO Phil Galler states, “As we continue to expand our business in the UK we have felt that it makes sense to establish a permanent office. We have done a lot of business in the UK in the past and we are excited to be able to serve our clients there as a legitimate UK entity.” 

LuxMC also recently launched a strategic delivery partnership with leading UK virtual production specialists Bild Studios, with the intention of being able to support one another’s projects with the highly-skilled and specialized workforce needed to support the growing demand for virtual production capable studios. 

Commenting on the new partnership, David Bajt, co-founder of Bild Studios, said: “We are hugely excited and honoured to announce this partnership with Lux Machina. The combination of our teams’ skills, experience and technical know-how will provide film studios and TV production houses access to the world’s very best virtual production technologies, tools and talent.” 

Additionally LuxMC has announced a hiring push in the UK for roles that span technical specialists with a background in visual effects and content management as well as business development and financial management roles.   

“The demand for broadcast and Unreal engineers has never been greater for us. We are in a state of exponential growth right now and we are excited to continue to provide the most qualified and capable support to our clients.” Says executive VP of production, Wyatt Bartel.
