So Sony bought Pixomondo from an equity capital firm in 2022, and now is shutting down its vfx business and integrating what’s left to internal production.

Star Trek vfx supervisor Brian Tatosky has reacted on Mastodon:

Well this is a bummer. Guess they wont be bidding the VFX versions of the VAD stuff we just shot a month or so ago.

The company’s LED virtual production work includes House of the Dragon, Star Trek: Discovery, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Reacher and Amazon’s critically acclaimed Cada Minuto Cuenta. PXO has seven creative studios and four LED volumes in the US, UK, Germany and Canada.

This is significant, to say the least.

SPE shared its intent with Televisual to eventually close the Pixomondo ‘umbrella,’ and integrate some of its capabilities into other areas of Sony.

I wonder what this means for the actual facilities.

They own two AR wall virtual sound stages in Toronto, one of which they share with the CBS Studios Star Trek production.

General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.
