Gathering Studio is proud to announce the opening of our new performance capture stage in Montreal's Mile-Ex district. The 15,000-square-foot facility represents a $12M investment in narrative technology and will serve all active projects across the studio.

Next-Generation Capture

The new stage features 120 Vicon cameras, real-time Unreal Engine integration, and a dedicated audio capture environment. This setup allows our teams to see performances rendered in-game within minutes of capture, dramatically accelerating iteration and creative decision-making.

This isn't just about better visuals—it's about preserving the nuance and emotion that great performances bring to our stories.

Marc Dubois, Studio Director

Creating Jobs in Montreal

The facility has already created 35 new positions across performance capture, technical art, and animation. With partnerships with local institutions including McGill and Concordia, we're building a pipeline for emerging talent in Quebec's growing game industry.
