EVOKE Studios

2020 was a year that changed a lot all over the world. So also for us. Already some time in discussion, it became more and more clear where we are headed. Only a full service company can compete in todays new emerging Industries of AR, Extended Reality and virtual production. So we are sure that we found the perfect solution for our future. Read below:

Happy Holidays and a great 2021 from EVOKE Studios!

We are reaching out to share what an incredible FIRST year it has been for us as a studio.

It was of course not the most usual year to have as a first year of business. We too have had to exercise resilience, and that carries over into 2021.

By enabling the latest technologies in Augmented and Extended Reality, and by working with established and new clients to provide these technologies with, we have made it through.

It’s important to mention with that, we haven’t done it all on our own. For every AR and XR production we delivered this year, we have collaborated with Studio One.

Studio One is ran by Urs Nyffenegger, who you may have already seen on our site as producer, but up until now we have mostly functioned as separate businesses.

We have a great working relationship with Urs and his team, and we mutually see tremendous value for our client base and ourselves in growing that collaboration.

Because of this we would like to share the news that Studio One is formally merging with EVOKE Studios and moving forward as one!

This turns EVOKE Studios into a full service production house for AR / XR / Projection mapping and interactive integrations.

It makes us able to function platform agnostic for the purposes of content creation, while delivering more streamlined workflows and communication for Unreal, Unity, Notch or disguise based projects.

Together with our partners and clients we created Visual Chemistry this year for events like the AIM Awards, the first XR Award show to take place in the UK: https://tinyurl.com/yceopq8n

Designed a virtual club for the Amsterdam Dance Event based on AR: https://vimeo.com/490748896

And delivered high end XR production for Siemens Digital Enterprise SPS Dialog https://vimeo.com/496041915

Through this we have enabled clients to safely engage with their audiences remotely, delivering shared experiences, while maintaining the highest production values.

We would like to thank those who brought us on board this year, and those who have collaborated with us to deliver the work we have made so far!

For now, best wishes from the EVOKE Studios team and most importantly, stay safe!

Let’s create a great 2021 together!

another view into our content creation workflows- no matter what the output is going to be - there can be one Tool to rule them all 🙂 Thanks for the write up, Notch VFX!!

Studio One creates dazzling AR using stYpe and Notch:
“With Notch, I can create all of the visual elements using the same tool. I can create pre-rendered Quicktime files for LED screens, produce real-time content and use the same Notch block to create perfectly matched AR content. The flexibility Notch gives me is unprecedented.”

CS Sportsaward 2018 - three Use cases for a TV Show

Last December we had the opportunity to use the new Notch / disguise workflows in a TV Show for the Swiss Sports Person of the Year. The Disguise gx2 server replaced the Green Hippo usually used by the TV Station, so we could do some AR Overlays with stYpe Red Spy kits tracking and Notch VFX to do all our Graphics - augmented or not. It was a small testbed to do really amazing things. What a tool set we have now in our hands with Notch and disguise AR workflows is just amazing!

Two Month in the making, very excited to have been part of this Wonderfull AR-Project together with the awesome Team of Bild Studios.

We're excited to share our latest AR-project; the opening ceremony for the Pakistan Super League 2019, created in collaboration with Studio One and under the creative direction of Samer Feghali from The Musketeers.

With six stYpe-tracked cameras including a Spidercam covering the entire pitch, we created a 50-minute AR show comprising of augmented set pieces for various music acts and other show-elements.

All AR-graphics were created in Notch VFX and played back by Disguise.

Big thanks to Michael Wilson and Real Good Liars for their talent and Notch-skills.
