V-Nova Studios manages the immersive business for V-Nova, coordinating original productions, technology development, strategic partnerships and distribution initiatives for cinematic 6DoF content.
The studio produces original immersive experiences, supports selected filmmakers, animation studios and IP owners, and helps bring premium cinematic content into the new era of spatial entertainment.
Through the impactX framework, we cover the full journey from concept to distribution: creative development, immersive language, production workflows, format integration, platform strategy and go-to-market opportunities.
At Annecy, we will present our latest original productions, including Sharkarma, alongside selected volumetric conversions and previews connected to major studios and the wider animation ecosystem.
We will also meet producers, studios and IP owners interested in co-production, immersive remastering, distribution partnerships and new XR opportunities.
Powering cinematic-grade 6DoF VR, V-Nova PresenZ is a three-time Lumiere Award-winning, HPA nominee, format that combines photorealistic visuals with genuine freedom of movement in pre-rendered scenes. It integrates into standard production workflows and supports remastering of existing asset libraries, with plug-ins available across all major pipelines.
At Annecy, we will showcase how PresenZ integrates into existing animation and VFX pipelines, including the latest work on Blender Cycles and Pixar RenderMan, alongside support for tools such as Maya, Arnold, 3ds Max, V-Ray, Open MoonRay, Houdini and Nuke.
We will also present our impactX design principles for creating a new cinematic language in 6DoF.
ImmersiX is our distribution platform for V-Nova PresenZ-powered immersive, giving producers a direct distribution channel to immersive audiences at scale.
After launching on PCVR, ImmersiX is now expanding through pixel streaming for Apple Vision Pro, and soon after for the other major devices (eg. Meta, Pico, Google, etc.). This represents a quantum leap toward, making cinematic 6DoF content accessible to a much larger XR audience, and dramatically increasing the potential market by removing the dependency on high-end PCVR hardware and opening the door to premium standalone devices.
At Annecy, we will present the next stage of ImmersiX streaming distribution and our roadmap for bringing immersive cinema to more headsets and audiences. A 50x market reach!
From creative design and production workflows to distribution across the next generation of XR devices. Produce once, monetize twice (2D and 6D).
