Live motion-captured MC
Pioneer work · one of the first in the world
Pioneer workMotion captureLive
Full-service immersive productions, décor, hardware & software
The invisible backbone of live digital performance
Where dance, music and audience meet, through motion capture, real-time rendering and video-over-network, we design the technical pipelines that make it truly work. Live, low-latency, and without a single thing allowed to falter.

Where technology meets art
Two worlds, seamlessly merged
On one side: network engineering, redundant broadcast architecture and custom software that pushes the edge of what real-time allows. On the other: dancers, drones, digital characters and an audience that has to feel something. And everything in between we build ourselves, from physical décor and hardware to real-time software and live execution. Our role is to connect those worlds so completely that the technology disappears and only the experience remains.
Core capabilities
What we build
01
Décor & set construction
We design and build physical sets, from concept to construction, that work seamlessly with the technology.
02
Real-time motion capture
Sub-millimetre precision with OptiTrack (marker-based) or fast, suit-free setups with Captury (markerless), whichever the production calls for.
03
Live video pipelines
Triple-redundant broadcast architecture and video-over-network, engineered never to drop during a live show.
04
Ultra-low-latency networking
The network layer pushed to its limit, making remote performances possible with latency low enough for genuine live interaction.
05
Real-time engine & digital characters
Unreal Engine and MetaHuman integration, drone control via mocap and VR live-links, powered by software we build ourselves.
06
Technical direction & live execution
From load-in to showtime we run the complete technical side of a production, live.
