Brompton Technology’s LED processing platform is driving the high-resolution LG LED volume at Studio V, a new virtual production stage inside StudioCube in Daejeon, South Korea’s largest public broadcasting content facility. The stage strengthens StudioCube’s role as a national hub for film and television, which has hosted internationally acclaimed productions such as Squid Game, Kingdom and Sweet Home.
Studio V’s LG LED volume is built with pixel pitches from 2.6mm to 3.9mm. It comprises a 60m by 8m wall combining curved and flat sections, two 5m by 5m movable displays and a 15m by 21m ceiling panel. Brompton says the full system covers around 94.7m pixels.
At the heart of the installation are 19 Tessera SX40 4K processors and 38 Tessera XD 10G distribution units. According to Brompton, the platform is designed to maintain consistent image quality across very large LED canvases and supports key virtual production features including ShutterSync for aligning refresh rates with camera shutters, Extended Bit Depth for smoother gradations, and Dark Magic to preserve shadow detail. PureTone is used for colour accuracy, while OptiTrack and Stage Precision tracking integration enables real-time synchronisation between LED content and camera movement.
HyunSuk Yoo, acting president of KOCCA, said: ‘Studio V represents a major step forward in Korea’s mission to advance global content creation. By integrating Brompton’s LED processing with our expanded production infrastructure, we are enabling creators to work at the highest international standard.”
Sebastian Kanabar, head of sales (APAC) at Brompton Technology, added: ‘This installation demonstrates how our Tessera platform can scale to meet demanding virtual production requirements while maintaining the image quality and reliability that cinematographers expect.”
StudioCube was established by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and the Korea Creative Content Agency (KOCCA). Studio V was formally launched on December 3 during an event hosted by KOCCA and attended by national and local government officials. The facility is expected to support a wide range of drama, film and commercial projects.
