SCENE 01 / LED WALL VIRTUAL
LED Wall Virtual Production
In-camera visual effects for your Irish production.
Here is how this works in practice. LED wall virtual production uses large LED display volumes to project real-time rendered environments behind performers, replacing traditional green screen with photorealistic in-camera backgrounds. Wicklow is known as Ireland's 'Hollywood'.
Here is the short of it. We connect you with LED wall facilities and Unreal Engine teams across Ireland, supported by post houses including Screen Scene, Egg Post and The Sound Yard. Our team sets up stage booking, virtual art department resources and the 32% Section 481 Film Tax Credit through Screen Ireland so your production has a complete English-speaking ICVFX pipeline.

Emerging LED-wall capacity in Ireland, paired with LED stages in Northern Ireland and Great Britain
Here is how this works in practice. Ireland's LED-wall virtual-production capacity is emerging at the senior end of the studio backbone. Productions that need a full LED volume typically pair Irish stages with LED facilities in Northern Ireland and Great Britain.
Here is the short of it. The hybrid model is the local default for the heaviest tentpole feature LED work. Productions pair Irish stages with London LED stages such as ARRI Stage London and Garden Studios for the largest multi-volume virtual-production shoots.
Egg Post Dublin + Yellowmoon Belfast + Screen Scene Dublin VFX houses deliver Unreal Engine content-creation and post-LED-composite pipelines.
Here is the breakdown. Gear flow runs ROE Visual Black Pearl BP2 + Carbon CB5 LED panels (the global cinema-LED standard) under Brompton Tessera SX40 + TR4 + S8 processor control. Disguise xR + Pixotope real-time-graphics runtime. Unreal Engine 5.4 nDisplay multi-screen cluster sync. Plus Mo-Sys StarTracker + Stype RedSpy + Vicon Vero camera-tracking integration. Camera packages standardise on ARRI Alexa 35 + Sony Venice 2 + RED V-Raptor 8K with genlocked timecode to the LED-wall pixel-clock for perfect motion-pull artifact elimination. We help eligible productions access Ireland’s 32% Section 481 credit, with 40% rates available for qualifying Scéal and VFX projects.
Here is what that looks like on the ground. We coordinate customs documentation for LED inventory between Republic, Northern Ireland and London same-week. Ardmore Studios + Ashford Studios deliver strong greenscreen alternatives for shoots where dedicated LED capacity is not yet ready. Bilingual EN/Irish (Gaeilge) crew planning is standard. ATA carnet through Revenue Commissioners clears imported LED panels and processors cleanly.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is LED wall virtual production?
LED wall virtual production (also called ICVFX - In-Camera Visual Effects) uses large LED displays to show real-time rendered environments behind actors. The camera captures both performers and background in-camera, giving realistic lighting and reflections.
What are the advantages over green screen?
LED walls give realistic lighting that illuminates actors naturally, capture accurate reflections in eyes and surfaces, and allow actors to see the environment they're performing in. Results are captured in-camera, reducing post-prod VFX work.
What kind of environments can you create?
Here is the breakdown. Virtually any environment—from authentic Irish locations such as the Wicklow Mountains, Cliffs of Moher, the Wild Atlantic Way and Dublin's Georgian streets to sci-fi worlds and historical periods. Environments can be built from photogrammetry of real Irish sites or designed from scratch in Unreal Engine.
Do you have LED stages in Ireland?
Here is what that looks like on the ground. Yes. We work with virtual production capable spaces at Troy Studios in Limerick, Ardmore Studios and Ashford Studios in Wicklow, and can set up short-term LED volume installations within those large stage complexes when a custom setup is needed.
How does camera tracking work?
Camera tracking systems measure the camera's exact position and rotation in real-time, allowing the virtual environment to respond with correct parallax as the camera moves. This creates convincing perspective shifts.
What's involved in pre-production?
Virtual production needs major pre-production—building digital environments, planning camera moves, and tech setup. Starting early allows time to develop assets and iterate on creative decisions.
