Z CAM in Quebec — cameras for studios and virtual production

What we do with Z CAM

Z CAM cameras give a cinema-grade image in a compact body, with a clean output for live keying. That’s what makes them interesting for podcast studios and virtual sets: the image quality without the bulk or the price of a traditional studio camera.

We sell the cameras on their own if that’s what you need. We can also deliver the full chain: lenses, lighting shaped for the look you want, keying, sound pickup, recording and distribution. An excellent camera plugged into bad lighting gives a bad image.

What we deliver: set design, build, colour configuration, integration with live keying, and training for the teams who will run it without a technician on site.

The repeatable template

When a client plans several studios, we design the first one so it can be repeated. Same technical chain, same settings, different sets. That means a host trained on one stage can run the others, and editing receives consistent material.

Questions we get asked

“Can a host run this alone?” That’s the design criterion. A stage that needs a technician every morning isn’t a stage, it’s a dependency.

“Green screen or LED wall?” Depends on budget, space and the look you want. We explain both with their real constraints before recommending.

“How many cameras?” Enough to cover your angles without paying for one you’ll never use. We start from your show format, not from a round number.

• Multi-camera captureIdentical bodies multiplied across a stage: same settings, same look, as many angles as you need.
