Green screen virtual production has revolutionized content creation, offering a flexible and cost-effective alternative to traditional production methods. By enabling real-time compositing and virtual set integration, this approach allows creators to deliver high-end cinematic content faster and within tighter budgets. Recognizing this shift, Masterwork Films CEO Biro Florin built a cutting-edge green screen virtual production studio in Brighton, UK, designed specifically for branded storytelling. His workflow leverages industry-leading tools, including Unreal Engine for real-time rendering, AJA ColorBox for on-set color grading, and AJA GEN10 for genlock synchronization—ensuring seamless integration of virtual and live-action elements.

Florin’s decision to invest in green screen virtual production stemmed from a need to enhance production quality while reducing costs associated with set construction, location logistics, and prop design. His studio’s setup features a u-shaped green screen stage with real-time keying, multi-camera switching, and motion tracking, allowing for highly dynamic and immersive productions. By using AJA ColorBox for real-time LUT application and live grading, Florin ensures accurate color representation from production through post. The addition of AJA GEN10 further refines the workflow by synchronizing multiple devices, eliminating stuttering and ensuring a cohesive final product.
This innovative workflow isn’t just for commercial projects, however. It also offers an exciting opportunity for church productions looking to enhance their visual storytelling. Worship services, event live streams, and sermon recordings can benefit from virtual green screen production’s ability to create stunning, immersive backgrounds without the cost and complexity of physical set builds. By adopting a similar setup, churches can elevate their productions, making worship experiences more visually engaging and impactful.
