History

edit

The 13,000 square metres (140,000 sq ft) domed complex features multiple sound stages, the world's biggest spherical shadeless blue screen, music scoring studios, a motion capture system, 16 mm and 35 mm laboratories, a color correction studio, a visual effects department, and a final mix studio.[1] Alvernia Studios activities included the production of feature films and commercials, as well as the implementation of music projects (including the smallest concert of the world), video games,[2] shows and concerts.[3]

The studio was founded in 2000 by broadcasting executive Stanisław Tyczyński, a Polish entrepreneur, the founder and former owner of RMF FM. Alvernia Studios was the first non-state film company in post-war Poland.[4]

In 2017, the studio was bought by Grupa Gremi, controlled by the entrepreneur Grzegorz Hajdarowicz.[5] He planned to launch an entertainment center in the buildings, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Alvernia xR project was created. It offers productions using augmented reality.[6]

On November 30, 2021, there was a fire at the plant.[7]
