LG Electronics has made a strategic seed investment in Mo-Sys Engineering, a company specializing in virtual production and image robotics. This investment signifies LG’s commitment to the future of virtual production and will primarily focus on supporting Mo-Sys’s research and development efforts.
This collaboration highlights LG’s recognition of Mo-Sys’s holistic approach to virtual production, which encompasses not only developing cutting-edge tools and technologies but also providing an academy and pioneering more efficient filming workflows.
Michael Geissler, CEO of Mo-Sys Engineering, stated, “We are delighted to have LG’s support as we continue to innovate in the field of next-generation virtual production technology. Their investment will enable us to enhance our R&D efforts, drive sustainability, and create more efficient production solutions.”
Paik Ki-mun, Senior Vice President and Head of the Information Display Business Unit of LG Business Solutions Company, added, “We’re excited by this new partnership, and by the unique value we’ll be able to deliver to customers through combining LG’s mastery of display technology with Mo-Sys’s expertise in virtual production solutions.”
Mo-Sys has been recognized for its sustainable practices, which have enabled filming with reduced travel and environmental impact. The company’s upcoming move to London’s Plumstead PowerStation will transform the site into a premier virtual production hub, facilitating collaboration between filmmakers and researchers to push the boundaries of the industry.
This partnership is not only aimed at revolutionizing virtual production technology but also at promoting environmental sustainability, reflecting both companies’ commitment to a greener future for the film and broadcasting industries.
