As ProVideo Coalition revealed, Vu Technologies unveiled this week its Vu One, an ‘all-in-one’ studio that makes Virtual Production accessible to all creatives regardless of budget and technical experience. Vu One combines the best capabilities of world-class virtual production studios into a single, easy-to-configure platform controlled by software from a mobile device you hold in your hand.

Vu One is designed to increase the efficiency – and affordability – of virtual production workflows for production studios, filmmakers, ad agencies, corporate marketing departments and content creators of any skill level. This innovative and comprehensive new turn-key virtual production system combines integrated hardware – a scalable LED volume, PTZ camera, audio system and a Puget Systems media server – with powerful virtual production software applications such as virtual environment generation, project management, remote collaboration, access to vast libraries of pre-built virtual environments, full studio recording capabilities, all of which leverage a Generative AI Orchestrator throughout the platform.
