MCR2-sm

Build your next Master Control Room in the Cloud and throw it away next week.

Master Control and Production Control facilities are all uber-custom installations. A traditional install, whether baseband or IP, can take months to complete and commission.

What if you could order any size control room and have it delivered in less than 48 hours? What if you could have another fully redundant room? What if you could have a control room on every continent and deployed within a week?

Control Rooms are our specialty and we regularly service Fortune 100 brands and networks from our in-house production facility, RediStream.

What are you waiting for? You could have deployed a MCR by now.

TESTIMONIALS

What our customers say

“As a busy Tech Producer within the Broadcast, Film, Streaming, and IP Engineering sectors of the production industry, I've worked hard at building solid relationships with my trusted vendors very carefully. When I need specialist IP workflows or Cloud-Based Control Rooms, StudioBuilder is at the top of my list. 'They get it.' "

PRESIDENT & TECHNICAL PRODUCER, VERONA PRODUCTION GROUP Jeff Friedman

"StudioBuilder allowed my company to continue 'business as usual' during the uncertain first 16 months of the Co-Vid pandemic... While I was interviewing other 'turnkey' virtual solution providers, I kept sensing that I would be handing over too much control to a totally new team. StudioBuilder was different. They encouraged using our own technicians and team members and always found the right way to merge their team and our team. It all felt very natural... With “live” meetings making a return, my clients’ ever evolving need for hybrid solutions, keeps StudioBuilder as my first call. I'm always confident that I have an elegant solution at my fingertips."

PRESIDENT, LBI Larry Bogush

"LedWallSystems and StudioBuilder have a long history of building cool stuff together. The Solutions Engineers invariably have the correct creative and robust solution to augment our own technology for the success of our clients' projects."

DIRECTOR, LED WALL SYSTEMS Mark Fryazin

“I hire StudioBuilder when I'm producing shows that require both traditional Broadcast workflows and Cloud-Based Platforms. If you need a team that can integrate even the most diverse technology, give them a try."

FAQ

Answers to some common questions

Need More Info?

What is StudioBuilder?

StudioBuilder is a provider of best-in-class production tools and software hosted in, typically, Amazon AWS or Microsoft Azure. We provide a fully managed, secure, remote infrastructure. We perform the Dev-Ops, IT-Ops, and Maintenance so our clients can better anticipate costs and focus more on their core competencies. 

What is RediStream?

RediStream is the in-house production studio at StudioBuilder. This is a popular option for production companies that need a complete turnkey experience and do not have the creative staff or running crew available for a production. 

What about software licenses?

Every vendor's software has a different license agreement and duration for their given product. 

In summary, you are required to BYOL (bring your own licenses). We can assist in the license transfer procedure and in certain cases help you to procure additional licenses as required.

For power users, how powerful are the StudioBuilder workstations?

The major cloud providers have an enormous variety of configurations available. We generally offer a few of our favorite configurations for a given application and are always able to customize to your exact build.

How powerful are they? We know that 3D design, compositing, and look-dev require power. We can configure workstations with up to 96 CPUs and 8 GPUs!

Leasing high-end workstations is almost always the better value as compared to an on-prem purchase that will generally take up to several years to fully recapture its initial investment. 

Summary:
High-end systems are a better value when leased in a cloud than purchased for on-prem due to price-to-performance slippage over the life of the purchased product.
