THE CAMPUS
BUILT ON A
LANDMARK
The 365-acre Tyler Perry Studios campus already includes premier sound stages, expansive backlots, standing sets, and full production support. The new virtual production–enabled soundstage adds state-of-the-art LED volume technology, real-time digital environments, and advanced workflows, expanding creative flexibility, streamlining production, and reducing costs while keeping crews at the center of the process.
As with every facility at Tyler Perry Studios, the Synapse soundstage will be available for third-party productions.
“This collaboration is about moving forward in a way that keeps crews working and traditional production jobs intact — while also allowing creatives new ways to build worlds and tell stories for the big and small screens.”
