Real-time production company, Dimension Studio, announced that they are partnering with Arch Platform Technologies and Amazon Web Services (AWS) to expand their global visualisation, virtual production, and content creation services in the cloud.
AWS has been selected as their preferred cloud provider to scale virtual production workflows. Alongside the Arch platform, this collaboration will streamline the orchestration of their advanced performance virtual desktop infrastructure, storage, and real-time capabilities.
This partnership follows the studio’s recent announcements: the launch of DNEG 360, an end-to-end production partnership operated by Dimension, and their global expansion.
“With AWS and Arch, we can collaborate remotely with filmmakers and work across multiple locations on shared assets. This is an efficient, secured, sustainable solution that’s a game changer for us,” Dimension and DNEG 360 CTO Callum Macmillan said in a statement shared on their website.
“Working with AWS and Arch, which is part of the AWS Partner Network, Dimension and DNEG 360 now have the infrastructure and bespoke services to support production needs, which will help them embark on the next chapter of their growth,” said AWS content production global strategy leader Katrina King.
“We are honoured to be a part of Dimension and DNEG 360’s vision for the future of creative content production,” Arch Platform Technologies CEO Guy Botham added.
Recently, Dimension and DNEG 360, collaborated with AWS for Cowgirls on the Moon, a demo to showcase the possibilities of generative AI-assisted virtual production, VFX rendering in the cloud using AWS Deadline Cloud, and holistic production in the cloud.
By leveraging Arch’s platform, Dimension’s team can create and deploy secure global VPC facilities in an hour, and any number of customised cloud workstations in five minutes. Arch also supports on-prem resources. The solution is scalable with variable cost.
Arch’s platform empowers their team to effortlessly scale and manage demanding creative workflows across global locations via a single-pane-of-glass portal. This includes the ability to create high-performance virtual private cloud facilities to support hybrid remote and office collaboration, powered by AWS’s reach and advanced performance infrastructure.
Looking ahead, Dimension’s forthcoming slate of independent films will deploy Arch, including the recently announced HUMANOID (Cambridge Picture Company), 2040, and Campbelltown 69 (both Virtual Circle).
