CoPilotXR Uses Ultimatte 12 4K for XR Virtual Productions

PostTue Mar 05, 2024 5:52 pm

Blackmagic Design today announced that CoPilotXR, a tech company that specializes in extended reality (XR) virtual production, relies on Ultimatte 12 4K real time compositing processors to develop custom, user friendly XR workflow solutions for its clients, making XR productions more widely achievable for productions of all sizes. Since implementing the Ultimatte 12 4K, CoPilot has been able to save 10 hours per project for its clients by removing the need for extra editing and keying in post.

Based in Winnipeg, Canada, CoPilot originally started as a film production company specializing in commercial video production. Since then, the company has broadened its scope by dedicating 90 percent of its business development focus toward virtual production and AI related solutions. Becoming experts in the field of XR, CoPilot offers a variety of services to clients, from consultation to the physical construction of XR LED stages. Its clientele includes ExxonMobil, the Government of Canada, and Mo-Sys Engineering. In addition, the CoPilot team produces its own YouTube channel, also called CoPilot, to educate a broader audience on affordable yet reliable equipment needed for XR productions.

“Our mission is to make virtual production accessible to everyone,” said CoPilot’s Director of Virtual Production Austin MacKay. “You don’t need to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to create immersive live environments; this can be done at home, at your business, or at a studio. The Ultimatte 12 4K is the perfect example of the gear that makes that happen. We use it for a significant portion of our efforts, especially for green screen XR virtual production solutions.”
