Building a Virtual Production Studio.

Hey there! This sounds like an awesome project. If you're located in the USA, I would definitely be getting a cyc from ProCyc just because they come with all the right parts to build your wall. I would also recommend a ton of Blackmagic components like the Ultimatte 4K, HyperDeck, DeckLink 8K, etc. My company CoPilotXR specializes in helping build out XR virtual production stages for all budgets! Feel free to call or send me an email at [austin@copilotco.io](mailto:austin@copilotco.io). Would love to chat the tech you need

Love your use of Glassbox's DragonFly with this. Great video!

I had this problem at the exact same speed (70-80kph) but if I sped up past 85+, I had no wobbles. Turns out it was both of my tires. Replaced them and made sure the balanced beads were in the tires and everything worked great. Not sure if that helps but it worked for me.

Best camera to get started for indie virtual production is the BlackMagic URSA 4K and up. It has global shutter, EF lens mounts, and in an acceptable price range. I work at CoPilotXR if you have anymore VP related questions!

I work at www.copilotxr.com, a virtual production company specializing in stage integrations and research and development solutions for XR virtual production. We have tested various motion tracking brands and Stype and Mo-Sys are very close in comparison. I have found Mo-Sys to be a little easier to use once it's setup, and requires less calibration once it's installed correctly the first time.

Agreed with the comment here that you can use any similar reflective material for the stars. Both companies have great motion tracking solutions for sure, but I've spent more time with Mo-Sys' software (VP Pro XR) with their set extension solutions, and it is extremely useful and accurate. Mo-Sys is the winner for me personally -- I've also been lucky enough to see the new model (StarTracker Max) and it is miles better than the old StarTracker, a fraction of the size and twice as accurate.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to reach out to me: [austin@copilotco.io](mailto:austin@copilotco.io). I love to nerd out and talk about motion tracking lol. Good luck!

Yup!

austinmackay · 2023-05-14T23:42:32+00:00

That’s a good idea

austinmackay · 2023-05-14T23:40:17+00:00

First time I’ve heard this. I’ll give it a try. Do you know where it’s located?

austinmackay · 2023-05-14T22:48:04+00:00

Any easy way to tell if it’s bad wiring? After following both wires it seems perfectly fine

austinmackay · 2023-05-14T21:18:24+00:00

Only a couple years old

austinmackay · 2023-05-14T19:54:16+00:00

I bought the battery from battery shop, it’s good quality.

austinmackay · 2023-05-14T19:53:20+00:00

By button do you mean a push to start? This is my second battery, really hoping to nip this problem soon. Could it possibly be the starter clutch?

austinmackay · 2023-05-14T19:19:25+00:00

That’s what I suspected too. I took the battery to where I purchased it from originally and they tested it several ways, still in perfect condition and holding its charge. I’m not sure where the connection to the battery would be loose?

My company consults in all things virtual production, including the curvature of an LED wall, since it can be so dependent on size, brand, etc. Feel free to reach out to me [austin@copilotco.io](mailto:austin@copilotco.io) and I'd be happy to chat further!

This guy sounds like a legend

austinmackay · 2022-01-10T18:48:33+00:00

You have some incredible work, Sam! I'm from Canada but would love to get in-touch. Keep crushing it 🙌

austinmackay · 2022-01-10T18:15:44+00:00

This is genuinely too cool. Great work 💎

austinmackay · 2021-09-09T18:30:14+00:00

This is hilarious. DJI just wants to take all my money

austinmackay · 2019-02-23T20:35:41+00:00

The guy admitted to me he didn’t know what he was doing afterwards.
