Spain's Coruña Immersive Studio begins operations

Spain's Pedralonga Estudios has announced the launch and start of operations of its Coruña Estudio Inmersivo (Coruña Immersive Studio, CEI).

The announcement was made during the 73rd San Sebastian International Film Festival and hosted by Fernanda Tabarés, president of Pedralonga Estudios. Attendees included Valentín González Formoso, president of Deputación da Coruña, and Alfonso Blanco, president of the Galician Audiovisual Cluster (CLAG), highlighting the cooperation between public institutions and the private sector that has driven the initiative forward.

During his speech, González Formoso highlighted the importance of CEI as “an infrastructure that connects two key sectors for the future of Galicia: media and technology”, noting that the studio will strengthen the region's ability to attract local and international shootings.

He also highlighted the public-private partnership model that has made this state-of-the-art production facility possible: co-financed by Deputación da Coruña and the Spanish Government through the Next Generation EU Funds, CEI is managed by Pedralonga Estudios SL, a company set up in 2024 by CLAG, the University of A Coruña and ten Galician companies.

CEI has a total area of over 2,000sqm, which includes a 750 sqm virtual studio with a 28 x 6m LED wall and 1.9 pixel pitch definition.

This infrastructure will be joined in 2026 by two more soundstages measuring 2,500 and 2,000sqm, currently under construction, designed to provide comprehensive production services with additional facilities.
