SCENE 01 / VOLUMETRIC CAPTURE
Volumetric Capture in Saudi Arabia
3D video recording for immersive experiences.
Volumetric capture records 3D performances. It uses arrays of synced cameras. This builds digital assets you can view from any angle. The tech makes lifelike 3D content. It works for virtual reality, augmented reality, game engines, and interactive media.
We connect you with volumetric capture studios and tech teams. They record high-quality 3D performances. Our team sets up stage booking, calibration, and data pipelines. We deliver volumetric assets that slot into your post-prod and distribution workflow.

On Location
Volumetric capture at NEOM XR Lab, Pixomondo Riyadh — holographic actor + heritage
3D capture in Saudi Arabia is a new skill. It centers on NEOM XR Lab and Pixomondo Riyadh. NEOM XR Lab runs an Unreal Engine 5 real-time pipeline. It pairs an LED Volume with a motion capture stage. This is the kingdom's flagship 3D facility.
It has multi-camera array stages for actor scanning and live performance recording. These tie into Unreal Engine 5 MetaHuman pipelines. Pixomondo Riyadh's ICVFX team leads here. They are Mandalorian, Star Trek Discovery, and House of the Dragon alumni. They bring the global 3D workflow standard to Saudi. Use cases are scaling fast.
Saudi heritage scans cover Hegra Nabataean tomb interiors at AlUla. These serve Royal Commission for AlUla preservation and tourism content. Athlete shoots cover Saudi Pro League player intros and FIFA Club World Cup activations. This builds toward the Saudi-hosted FIFA World Cup 2034. Cultural recording covers traditional Saudi Bedouin dance, falconry, and oud and nay performances. Saudi Music Commission programs back this work. Luxury fashion and jewellery scans tie motion-control to Pixomondo's LED Volume.
The production stack runs to current spec. It follows the Microsoft Mixed Reality Capture Studios partnership pattern. Pixomondo runs this build in the region. It uses 100+ synced RGB and depth cameras. 4DViews Holosys handles the recording. Arcturus HoloEdit and HoloSuite handle post.
Volucap-style array setups cover demanding live performance work. Manga Productions is a Saudi-Japan anime JV with Toei Animation. It bridges 3D performance recording into anime-hybrid Unreal Engine 5 pipelines. Post runs through Unreal Engine 5 Nanite and Lumen. This renders the finished 3D assets in real time at native LED Volume frame rate.
We deliver Meta Quest 3 and Apple Vision Pro spatial-computing builds. We also deliver web-XR via 8th Wall and AAA game-engine builds. Cultural Development Fund rebates run at 35% plus a 5% Saudization uplift. This covers 3D production spend through Saudi-registered facilities that meet Nitaqat thresholds. General Commission for Audiovisual Media (GCAM) handles content licensing. Saudi Music Commission backs 3D work with traditional performers.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is volumetric capture?
Volumetric capture records a performance from all angles at once. It uses dozens of synced cameras. This makes true 3D video. You can view it from any angle—not just a flat 2D clip.
How is it different from motion capture?
Motion capture records movement data for CG characters. Volumetric capture records the real look of performers. It captures their faces, costumes, and moves as 3D video you can view. No CG characters are needed.
What are common applications?
Volumetric video works for VR/AR experiences, holographic displays, and rich documentaries. It also suits music performances and game cinematics. Use it anywhere viewers want to move around and through the recorded scenes.
What are the wardrobe considerations?
Certain patterns and fabrics can trip up volumetric reconstruction. We advise on costume choices during pre-production. Solid colors and matte fabrics work best. Newer systems handle more variety.
What formats can you deliver?
We deliver volumetric content in many formats. These include point clouds, mesh sequences, and compressed volumetric video. The right format depends on your target platform and playback needs.
Where are volumetric stages in Saudi Arabia?
Saudi Arabia can tap volumetric capture facilities through ties with European studios. We set up stage access, tech crews, and every part of volumetric production.
Related Services
Productions in Saudi Arabia that need this often pair it with AR Production, Multi-Camera Setups, and Virtual Production for full coverage. Most projects also draw on Multi-Camera Shoots and Post-Production Audio.
