SCENE 01 / VIRTUAL REALITY FILMING
Virtual Reality Filming
Professional 360 video and immersive VR content production across Germany.
Virtual reality filming produces fully immersive 360-degree content designed for VR headsets, placing viewers inside the scene with six degrees of freedom. This format demands specialized multi-lens camera arrays, spatial audio capture, and careful staging to create compelling experiences that leverage VR's unique strengths.
We coordinate VR filming projects with specialized camera systems, spatial audio rigs, and experienced immersive content crews. Our team manages the complete technical pipeline from capture through post-production, ensuring your VR content delivers a seamless, comfortable viewing experience on target headset platforms.

Volucap Berlin Fraunhofer Heritage, Sennheiser AMBEO Hannover & Berlinale VR Sectional
Here is how this works in practice. Virtual reality filming across Germany combines spherical-capture rigs (Insta360 Pro 2 + Titan, Kandao Obsidian R + Pro, Z Cam V1 Pro + K2 Pro, Yi HALO 17-cam) with volumetric capture at Volucap Berlin (Fraunhofer Heinrich Hertz Institute Berlin partnership — Germany's first volumetric capture studio, full 360-degree motion capture of performers into VR-ready point clouds) plus Studio Babelsberg VolStage and Bavaria Film virtual production where VR + volumetric + LED-volume workflows now intersect.
Here is the short of it. Spatial audio captures through the Sennheiser Hannover-built AMBEO VR Mic (4-capsule ambisonic — the global cinematic VR sound standard), Schoeps Karlsruhe Double M/S, and Zylia ZM-1 third-order ambisonic mics. VR post pipelines run Mistika VR + Adobe Premiere VR + Final Cut Pro VR + DaVinci Resolve + Unreal Engine 5 through Pixomondo Frankfurt + Rise Visual Effects Studios Berlin + Mackevision Stuttgart.
Heritage German VR leadership traces through Wim Wenders (Wings of Desire 1987 Berlin angel film + early 360 experimentation), the Berlinale Sectional VR strand profiling cinematic XR since 2017, plus the Filmuniversität Babelsberg Konrad Wolf + Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg Ludwigsburg VR programs training European VR talent for over a decade.
Here is the breakdown. We pre-clear FFA + DFFF + GMPF rebate paperwork (GMPF 25% uncapped since 2023, federal/regional stack to 50%+ effective), handle FSK age rating workflows, file Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg + FFF Bayern + Filmstiftung NRW + MFG Baden-Württemberg + MDM + Nordmedia + HessenFilm + BKM notifications, and set up KSK-registered freelance VR DPs + spatial sound engineers + stitch artists under BG ETEM + VBG film-crew safety governance.
Locations include Brandenburg Gate, Reichstag, Museum Island UNESCO 1999, Speicherstadt Hamburg UNESCO 2015, Kölner Dom UNESCO 1996, Neuschwanstein Castle, and Bavarian Alps. Cross-border camera + ambisonic mic supplements arrive same-week from London + Vienna.
FAQ
VR Production Expertise
What VR cameras do you use?
We work with professional 360 camera systems including Insta360 Titan, Kandao Obsidian, and RED-based custom rigs. We select cameras based on your resolution requirements, stereoscopic needs, and project budget.
Can you create stereoscopic 3D VR?
Yes, we produce both monoscopic (2D 360) and stereoscopic (3D 360) content. Stereoscopic provides greater depth and immersion but requires more complex capture and post-production. We'll recommend the best approach for your content.
What about spatial audio?
We capture spatial audio using ambisonic microphone arrays that record sound from all directions. In post-production, we mix spatial audio that responds to viewer head movement, creating a complete immersive experience.
Which VR platforms can you deliver for?
We deliver content optimized for all major VR platforms including Meta Quest, Apple Vision Pro, PlayStation VR, and PC VR headsets. We also prepare content for web-based 360 players and social media 360 video.
What makes VR filming different?
VR requires different production approaches—the entire 360 sphere is visible, there's no 'off-camera' space to hide crew and equipment. Directors guide attention rather than controlling frame. We manage these unique challenges.
Can you film at Germany landmarks?
Yes, we arrange VR filming at iconic German locations from Neuschwanstein to the Berlin Wall to natural wonders. We handle permits, manage the unique requirements of 360 filming in public spaces, and ensure professional results.
