Which company partnered with Epic Games to create StageCraft for The Mandalorian? Industrial Light & Magic. ILM partnered with Epic Games to build the virtual-production system around Epic’s Unreal Engine.

StageCraft uses large LED video walls to display computer-generated environments in real time while actors perform inside a soundstage known as a volume. Instead of relying entirely on green-screen compositing after filming, the production could see the digital surroundings on set and capture interactive light, reflections, and camera perspective during the shot.

The technology was especially useful for the Mandalorian’s reflective armor, because the LED environment supplied believable reflections as the footage was recorded. Epic Games contributed Unreal Engine technology for real-time rendering, while ILM developed and integrated the production system. Thus, Epic Games was the technology partner, but Industrial Light & Magic was the visual-effects company credited with creating StageCraft for the series.
