Blackmagic Design today announced that Raleigh based North Carolina State University (NC State) has created a state of the art Virtual Production Lab complete with a 22x12 ft. LED wall, Unreal Engine, VIVE Mars CamTrack systems and numerous Blackmagic Design products. As one of the few colleges in the U.S. that offers virtual production courses and the first in North Carolina, the university completed its maiden semester with students shooting on the Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro 12K OLPF digital film camera.
NC State’s College of Design faculty designed a comprehensive setup for the studio, which is managed by filmmaker and certified DaVinci Resolve trainer Ryan Khan. In the lab, students experience a diverse range of applications, including filmmaking, AR/VR, concept development and live events.
“Blackmagic Design’s ethos of empowering the creative is the reason NC State chose its products for the lab,” began Khan, virtual production lab manager for the college’s Virtual Production Lab. “The College of Design encourages a research driven and collaborative culture, which is based on real world technologies and enables students and faculty to participate as much as possible. Alongside my typical responsibilities of teaching and troubleshooting, I also bring my two decades of filmmaking experience to show how virtual production can enhance storytelling and bringing a creative vision to life.”
