Our Studio
Platige Image has spent nearly thirty years making animation, VFX and game cinematics from its Warsaw headquarters — from Oscar-nominated shorts to trailers for The Witcher, Cyberpunk 2077 and Total War.
The motion capture studio is a separate, dedicated unit within Platige Image, with its own stage, its own crew and its own pipeline.

Our Stage
The stage is built for extraordinary projects — from games to full-length feature films. Its height and installed safety systems make it suitable for stunt and action work that most volumes cannot take.
Volume: 20 × 13 × 8 m high
Capture area
- 4 × Genlock and timecode-synced Sony Alpha reference cameras with assorted lenses.
- Internal audio and video distribution with 4–6 on-set monitors, plus video village capability.
- Real-time visualisation in MotionBuilder or Unreal Engine.
- Continuous live video and audio stream for remote direction and supervision, delivered straight to the studio floor.
- Dedicated stunt rig with multiple anchor points for complex wire setups.
In studio
- Flying Rig
- A suspended stunt system that safely lifts, moves and controls performers in mid-air.
- Soft Floor
- A shock-absorbing cushioned surface for performer safety and comfort.
- High Entrance Gate
- Wide and tall enough to bring large set construction straight onto the stage.
Stage rental
The stage can be rented on its own, without full production service. Given the ceiling height and the installed safety systems, it suits stunt and action shoots in particular.
