For LD Andrew Bridge, the final April 16 production of Broadway’s “The Phantom of the Opera” after a 35-year run was particularly poignant. “The opulence and the way it is choreographed on stage, the scene changes and all that, we will miss that. There aren’t many shows that can do that now. We have something like 150 people working each performance. You can’t do Broadway shows today with that size crew, cast and a 27-piece orchestra, it’s just not viable. So, I think we’ll all miss the opulence of that kind of Broadway show.”
PLSN’s April 2023 “In the Volume” section starts off with news about disguise and XPLOR’s new partnership to tackle the skills gap in virtual production in the UK; how EMN Tech is teaming up with AOTO to build a virtual studio in Turkey; how Reno Studios is launching Taiwan’s highest-res virtual production movie studio in Taiwan, and how Vectorworks’ connection to NVIDIA Omniverse expands designers’ opportunities in the Metaverse.
