Ubiquity Broadcasting Corporation opened a new 30,000 square foot 3D production facility in Irvine, Calif. Ubiquity Studios features three separate sound stages, multiple edit suites, a fully equipped gourmet kitchen and creature comforts such as a hair salon and luxurious green room.
“I am currently shooting my next 3D IMAX feature on location in Tahiti and I can’t wait to get back to Ubiquity Studios to start postproduction,” said Mike Prickett, Ubiquity’s director of cinematography.
Ubiquity Studios features equipment from Sony, including the new 4K Cine Alta F23, as well as cameras from Sony, Canon and Red. The studios feature professional lighting with 400+ amps per studio and are fully air-conditioned with whisper quiet noise reduction.

Leading action sports brands have recently shot a series of commercials in the 3D studio and were very pleased with the convenient location, professional staff and outstanding production facilities.
In addition to its production capabilities, Ubiquity Studios also produces its own programming including its current series KJ Noons Uncaged featured on Showtime and YouTube focused on the career of KJ Noons, champion Strikeforce fighter and EliteXC Lightweight Champion.
