WWE Opens New Studio Complex
WWE continues to embrace technology.
WWE has opened a 30,000 square foot studio complex called The Studios at WWE.
According to Ken Kerschbaumer at Sports Video Group, the complex features “five studios include a 5,000 sq. ft. main studio, a 1,500 Cyclorama studio, a 1,500 sq. ft. volumetric LED studio (to open later this spring), and then two smaller insert stages that are around 600 sq. ft. each (there is also a photo studio that is around 1,000 sq. ft.).”
It’s also noted that “WWE is the first U.S. facility to install Crystal LED Verona, implementing a total of 158 cabinets across its main wall and auxiliary carts.”
Joe Solari, WWE, VP, Studio Operations, commented, “We’ve been bringing people in over the past few days to look at the space that we created, and I think everybody’s very excited to get in there and to create on the stages,” he says. “It gives us new tools and a new canvas to push the limits of what we do here at the WWE. We can take our productions to the next level and really increase our fan engagement. I don’t think that there is anything in Connecticut right now that even comes close to what we built here. Not just studio space wise, but the amount of production support that we have.”
Senior vice president and director of WWE TV, Marty Miller recently commented on how WWE will start pushing the envelope with technology when WWE Raw moves to Netflix. You can read his full comments by clicking here.
