Alfalite powers Spain’s largest virtual production studio

Alfalite has announced that its Modularpix Pro VP XR solution is the core technology behind the new Coruña Immersive Studio (CEI), located in A Coruña (Galicia) and recognised as Spain’s largest virtual production studio. The facility features a 28 x 6-meter LED wall, a 100-square-meter ceiling screen, and two side LED totems, incorporating a total of 1,152 Alfalite VP XR LED panels.

The CEI is built on a 2,539-square-meter site, with 750 square meters dedicated to the studio, within A Coruña’s Cidade das TIC technology hub. It consists of two interconnected buildings designed to support high-end virtual productions.

The project was developed in collaboration with Telefónica Servicios Audiovisuales (TSA) and Tangram Solutions, two strategic partners of Alfalite that played a key role in integrating the necessary technology to ensure the studio’s success. The investment was co-financed by the A Coruña Provincial Council and the Government of Spain through the Recovery, Transformation, and Resilience Plan.

The centerpiece of the studio is a 28 x 6-meter semicircular LED wall made up of 672 Alfalite Modularpix Pro VP XR panels with a 1.9 mm pixel pitch and a total resolution of 14,336 x 3,072 pixels.

This main display is complemented by a 100-square-meter ceiling screen featuring Alfalite Modularpix Pro 3.9 HB VP XR panels and two movable side LED totems, each measuring 2.5 x 4 meters and equipped with Alfalite Modularpix Pro 2.6 VP XR modules.

In total, the studio integrates 1,152 Alfalite VP XR LED panels, enabling filmmakers and advertisers to create immersive, dynamic, and hyper-realistic environments with depth and perspective.

The CEI’s advanced technology setup is further enhanced by Pixotope’s 3D tracking solution, ARRI Alexa cameras, Canon lenses, Novastar MX Series processors, and a Blackmagic video matrix.

“We are proud to be part of this project, which is set to become one of Europe’s leading audiovisual hubs for virtual production in film and television,” said Luis Garrido, Executive Director of Alfalite. “We extend our gratitude to our partners Telefónica Servicios Audiovisuales and Tangram Solutions, who have led this monumental project and trusted our technology to meet the highest industry standards.”

Alfalite’s VP XR technology was selected for its ability to meet the demanding requirements of virtual production environments, where every detail is crucial. These LED panels are specifically designed for virtual production ecosystems, allowing real-time interaction with cameras and graphics servers while offering outstanding functionality and a colour space that enhances the creativity of filmmakers and cinematographers.

“With our Modularpix Pro VP XR solution, the CEI benefits from the best luminance and color spectrum available in high-resolution LED panels, establishing it as a benchmark for the most demanding audiovisual productions,” added Garrido.
