Virtual Production

Here is the breakdown. We set up virtual production for shoots in Belgium, connecting shoots with LED volumes, real-time rendering pipelines, camera tracking, virtual-art departments and the tech crews who run an in-camera VFX workflow. Virtual production combines physical filming with real-time computer graphics — performers shoot in front of LED walls displaying photoreal, camera-tracked settings, so backgrounds, reflections and interactive light are captured in camera rather than added later.

Here is how that works. Our teams plan the volume setup with the DP, the virtual-art department and the VFX supervisor, balancing the digital work against the physical lighting and the colour response of the camera. Belgium's strong virtual-production sector around Brussels gives shoots access to stage space, real-time engineers and the LED and rendering infrastructure this work depends on. Our crews work in Dutch, French and English, and we brief shoots on what virtual production can deliver so the creative and tech plans are aligned from the start.

Here is what that looks like on the ground. Belgium's virtual-production skill is a direct result of its deep VFX and animation cluster. The Belgian Tax Shelter, a tax-incentive investment mechanism that has channelled investment into qualifying shoots and built the studio and stage infrastructure the country relies on. Studios such as nWave, Benuts, Grid VFX and uMedia give virtual-production projects access to skilled real-time artists and setting builders, and the same ecosystem that delivers feature VFX and animation supports virtual production.

In practice, the work is hands-on. Regional funds. Screen Flanders and the VAF in Flanders, Wallimage in Wallonia, screen.brussels in the capital — reinforce the sector, and the INSAS and RITCS film schools in Brussels sustain the talent base. The euro is the working currency and VAT is 21%. For shoots weighing where to place virtual-production shooting and finishing, our team explains how the Tax Shelter applies to qualifying spend and sets up the volume, crews and content pipeline so the workflow runs to plan.
