Sphere: Pipeline Development
The opportunity

In 2018, MSG needed post-production solutions for a confidential project: what would become the Las Vegas Sphere, the world's largest immersive video display. A collaborator brought us in.

The idea

Treat an impossible format as a production problem — build the practices, pipelines, and team to make content for a screen that didn't exist yet.

My role

I led the engagement across a multi-year R&D effort, and assembled the team of immersive-video experts behind it.

How it was made

Two years of establishing best practices for the format, navigating technical and creative challenges of producing at that scale. The team we assembled transitioned to full-time roles inside Sphere as the venue approached debut.

Impact

The work contributed directly to Postcard From Earth, Sphere's opening show, while Springbok continued as an independent R&D and content partner for years after.
