The world’s largest monolithic LED virtual production stage has been officially unveiled in China.
Jointly developed by Absen and Versatile, the stage features a 270-degree curved LED screen with a diameter of 50m and a height of 12m.
The total floor area of the stage reaches 5,000m2, with the LED display covering approximately 1,700m2 – equivalent to four standard basketball courts.
It was unveiled at the opening of the Versatile AI Virtual Film Base and the AI Virtual Film Technology Launch Event in Deqing, China.
Chinese display specialist Absen has a long-term partnership with virtual production service provider Versatile.
Founded in 1993 and headquartered in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Versatile Media has branches in Deqing, Beijing, and Vancouver.
Absen said the two companies’ technical teams worked in close coordination on the project, from early-stage planning and tackling key technical challenges to on-site installation and calibration.
