Electric Bloom
Synapse Virtual Production provided comprehensive LED volume and virtual production services for Disney Channel's Electric Bloom, a music-driven comedy series following a girl band from their middle school days to chart-topping success. Working with production company ReelFX and Disney Branded Television, Synapse supported the show from Virtual Art Department (VAD) asset creation through on-set execution, including digital crowd creation for the series' music videos. Our team built three custom Unreal Engine environments and eight graphics packages, enabling the production to seamlessly blend performance footage with dynamic LED backgrounds and digitally created audiences. The production utilized Synapse LA Studio's 62' x 40' LED volume with 240° field-of-view, delivering final-pixel in-camera visuals that captured the energy and spectacle of live musical performance.
A music-driven comedy series following a girl band from their middle school beginnings, made for Disney Channel. Created by Alex Fox, Eric Friedman and Rachel Lewis, with Diane Warren among the executive producers and Danielle Fishel among the directors.
A multi-camera series shoots fast and repeats often. Episodic television cannot afford a bespoke environment build per episode, and a young cast performing musical numbers needs to see the world they are playing in rather than imagine it off a mark on a green wall.
Synapse provided comprehensive LED volume and virtual production services across the series, including a full Virtual Art Department and Unreal Engine content creation rather than environment rental alone. Pixera playback and camera tracking ran the stage; the VAD built and maintained the environments as a standing library the production could return to.
Electric Bloom premiered on Disney Channel on 10 July 2025 and arrived on Disney+ on 17 September 2025, with guest appearances including Maia Kealoha, Dara Rene, Danielle Fishel and Phill Lewis.
