Mo-Sys expands its Virtual Production Academy into APAC

Company partners with Thairath TV, LG and EPIC Games to open APAC Academy in Bangkok, Thailand

Mo-Sys, provider of virtual production solutions, has announced the opening of a new Virtual Production Academy in Asia Pacific (APAC). The Academy will be located in Bangkok, Thailand, and will offer Mo-Sys’ unique range of hands-on, practical virtual production course, from September 2023.

Established in 2021, Mo-Sys’ Virtual Production Academy is said to be the first to provide hands-on practical virtual production training. The Academy specialises in courses based around small group activities designed to transfer knowledge and build confidence, with carefully designed training to help participants build the skills and experience they need to succeed in the growing field of virtual production.

“The demand for skilled virtual production technicians is growing rapidly, and we are excited to expand our Academy to APAC together with Thairath TV, LG and the support of Epic Games, where we will address the regional skills gap,” said Michael Geissler, CEO of Mo-Sys. “Our Academy will provide participants with the knowledge and experience they need to be successful.”

Mo-Sys is partnering with Thai television broadcaster Thairath TV and LG to deliver its training programs. The new APAC Academy courses will be delivered from Thairath TV’s Palace Studio which will double as a permanent VP technology open house to showcase the very latest product developments.

“I am excited to announce the opening of our APAC Academy,” said Nok Yupapak Tawanna, VP APAC Region for Mo-Sys. “The Academy will provide world-class VP training opportunities and I can’t thank our amazing partners Thairath TV, LG and Epic Games enough for their support.”

During an opening event on August 10, Epic Games’ Unreal Engine business director, Bernt Kare Johannessen provided insight about the Unreal product roadmap and introduced a User Summit, whilst Sean Cho of LG Electronics presented the latest LED display technology for virtual production and introduced the company’s complete studio solutions for broadcast, cinematic and corporate VP and XR applications.
