Orbital Studios promotes leadership, ramps up global virtual production services

LA-based Orbital Studios, a virtual production studio and services provider, has promoted A.J. Wedding to CEO and Eric Heffler to President, as part of its efforts to support its global operations and international market expansion.

The company's mobile virtual production approach has been recently used on Netflix's series Nemesis, from Power Universe creator Courtney Kemp.

Co-founder Wedding said in a statement: "Productions worldwide are facing increasing pressure to control costs while maintaining creative quality. Our virtual production capabilities address these challenges by eliminating location dependencies, weather delays, and logistical complications - benefits that become even more valuable when combined with enhanced production incentives across production-heavy markets like the UK, Canada, and Eastern Europe."

President Eric Heffler will oversee international service delivery and operations.

Founded in 2020, Orbital Studios is a virtual production services provider specialising in mobile LED stage technology and comprehensive production solutions.

Its Los Angeles base is a 36,000-square-foot headquarters, and the company also services productions worldwide through its mobile operations model.
