What Volumate is
Volumate is a browser-based virtual production tool for planning shoots on physical stages before production. Users can enter room dimensions or import a studio scan to create a virtual stage, then build LED walls using panel counts and curve settings. The catalog lists 185 LED panel models across 20 brands, along with 72 camera bodies and 50 lens sets for previz. Camera blocking supports robot rigs including the SISU C20 and Camerabotics CRA. Projects can open on Meta Quest for a 1:1 walkthrough of a scanned studio. Shared review links let people comment and pin notes on 3D surfaces without accounts. Displays can run on TVs, tablets, LED processors, or second monitors and be grouped for synchronized playback. A camera feed can stream from DeckLink, Elgato, or a webcam over WebRTC. Volumate can generate Gaussian-splat worlds, images, video, and 360-degree panoramas from text, photos, or video prompts. Camera moves export as video or FBX, and storyboards can be printed. One plan costs $29 a month, with a 14-day card-required trial.
