Carnaby Media Hub
What does a modern, no-compromises media production facility look like when you design it from the ground up? The Carnaby Media Hub (CMH) is a theoretical project mapping out exactly that. This series documents the journey from a conceptual blueprint to a fully realized powerhouse where bleeding-edge tech and creative artistry collide. Across these posts, I’m breaking down the core pillars of the vision. We’ll explore the physical environments—including colossal sound stages, a dedicated theatre, and "The Volume" for virtual production—before digging into the technical infrastructure of IP networks, tiered control rooms, and Dante-driven audio. From there, it’s a look into the R&D labs, where 3D body scanning and print farms bridge the digital and physical, alongside dedicated spaces for rehearsals, costume design, and eco-friendly infrastructure. Ultimately, it’s a comprehensive look at a seamless, interconnected creative universe built for the future of live performance and storytelling.
