Our Client Mariana Acuña From Opaque Studios is Named one 10 Virtual Reality Innovators to watch for by variety.com

We are very proud that our dear friend Mariana Acuña Acosta has been named on the top 10 Virtual Reality Innovators to Watch by Variety US. Studio Equator is currently working on the Visual Identity and Website for her company Opaque Studios, we are very honoured and excited to be part of her story…Mariana and Opaque are destined for success.

At Opaque, Acuña-Acosta is putting VR to work for film and TV pros with game engine plug-ins that let them strap on headsets and collaborate in the virtual worlds they’re creating in real time. “There’s a lot of waste in vfx because you’re not able to visualize and then make decisions on the fly,” says Acuña-Acosta, a native of Mexico who spent more than a decade as a digital compositor, compiling a list of credits that includes the films “Zodiac” and “Green Lantern” and the TV series “Lost.” With Opaque’s plug-ins, “we’re giving directors the same workflow they’d have on a live-action set,” enabling them to relight and redress virtual sets and direct from facial captures within the VR environment.

Congratulations and watch out for her great work…
