The Cobalt Insider.

Happy Thanksgiving <3
We've never been more grateful.

Our first stage was born in 1995 as a tabletop / VFX studio, and if there were a sign above our door it would read “Science in the Service of Art”. Throughout the years, we’ve invested in the right tools for tabletop work, which has often meant inventing, engineering and constructing those tools ourselves, in-house. That’s how tabletop works.

Our partnerships with Mo-Sys and Unreal Engine have been netting us some really great results on recent projects! Today, we wanted to take you on a quick tour of our Virtual Production capability, combining the power of Unreal Engine with the amazing Mo-Sys Star Tracker, and share why our clients love it, we love it, and we’re sure you’re gonna love it, too.

Get to know the people behind the soundstage. As Cobalt’s leader, Kara has been the 'business' architect behind Cobalt’s by-producers, for-producers ethos along with our holistic approach to hosting productions.

We built Cobalt Woodstock to offer a space that’s big enough for productions of any size. Now that we have multiple stages totaling a whopping 22,000 sq feet, we welcome not only our lovely commercial clients, but also TV episodics and features, boasting an entire building of production opportunity. We heard the rumblings of the newest Upstate New York Tax incentives, and didn’t want to be left out of the 40% rebate that surpasses all of NYC (yes, even Brooklyn) and even our New Jersey stage.

If you haven't heard about Virtual...there’s a lot to catch up on.
Lets talk.

LA Clients made the move to Woodstock.

The massive soundstage doors are open, and Cobalt Woodstock is up and running! Just the other week, we had some of our long-time LA clients in town for a shoot. They absolutely raved about the area, and about the Cobalt campus we’ve put together in the Hudson Valley :)

Why shoot just anywhere when you can shoot ANYWHERE!? You know by now that you can shoot anywhere at Cobalt Woodstock. You can shoot on the Moon, Mars, India or Sealy, Texas for that matter. LOL. That’s the magic of Virtual Production.

We all love New Jersey. We love Snookie, Springsteen, conversations about what exit of the Garden State Parkway people grew up near. All of it… what’s not to love?

THESE are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman...
