Mo-Sys and APG Media join forces to provide virtual production solutions

Mo-Sys™ Engineering, a leader in virtual production and image robotics, and APG Media, a leading LED volume rental provider and distributor, have partnered to provide customers with access to complete end-to-end LED virtual production set-ups, combining Mo-Sys’ StarTracker and VP Pro XR with APG Media’s HyperPixel, customised LED wall solutions.

The Mo-Sys StarTracker  camera/lens tracking system has become the technology of choice for leading-edge virtual productions. The advanced tools in VP Pro XR content server include the unique ability to pull focus seamlessly between real and virtual objects. By partnering with  APG Media, Mo-Sys can now offer custom engineered LED tiles and a comprehensive package for tailored LED volume, multi-camera production systems.

“The appetite for high production values means virtual production is no longer exclusive to big budget movies,” said Michael Geissler, CEO of Mo-Sys. “In cinematography, the quality of LED walls has to be as high as possible to deliver the best results and HyperPixel meets this requirement. Through this collaboration with APG Media we are removing the technical complexity from the equation and freeing up production teams to express their full creativity with an immaculate end result.”

David Weatherhead, CEO at APG Media  added “Virtual production is taking off as cinematographers and content producers recognise the impact this model can have on their final output – if they use the right technology. In a segment that is already at the cutting edge, Mo-Sys is a pioneer and a market leader, and this partnership brings huge value to both our customers. By combining our offerings, we can now open the doors to the best technology and help cinematographers to create the stunning content that audiences demand.”

The new Mo-Sys Refinery in Los Angeles will feature a HyperPixel high resolution LED wall, featuring ultra-tight seams for the ultimate in immersive visual experiences.  APG Media will add a Mo-Sys VP Pro XR and  StarTracker  to the offering within its rapidly growing specialist virtual production division.
