WWE has opened its next world-class establishment, The Studios at WWE, a 30,040-square-foot studio complex in Stamford, CT.
Ken Kerschbaumer of Sports Video Group is reporting that the premises consist of five studios: a 5,000 square foot main studio, a 1,5000 Cyclorama studio, a 1,500 square foot volumetric LED studio, and two smaller 600 square foot insert stages.
The LED studio will open later in the spring. There is also a 1,000-square-foot photo studio.
The facility is expected to enhance production efficiency, quality, and versatility.
This will be the first building of its class to use Sony Verona LED in the United States, “implementing a total of 158 cabinets across its main wall and auxiliary carts.”
The five studios feature a cutting-edge virtual production stage, built in collaboration with AbelCine and Meptik, and the latest-generation technology from Sony Electronics and Disguise.
WWE VP of Studio Operations Joe Solari said,
“We’ve been bringing people in over the past few days to look at the space that we created, and I think everybody’s very excited to get in there and to create on the stages. It gives us new tools and a new canvas to push the limits of what we do here at the WWE. We can take our productions to the next level and really increase our fan engagement. I don’t think that there is anything in Connecticut right now that even comes close to what we built here. Not just studio space wise, but the amount of production support that we have.“
