Overview
Preliminary discussions with national and international experts and potential partners have shown that there is commercial potential for a film studio in Central Switzerland. With this project, we want to clarify how, where, and with which business model a film studio can be realized in the canton of Lucerne. This film studio will be equipped with the latest technology for virtual production. It will be used by partners for 5-10 commercially successful film and television productions per year, as well as by the HSLU to train the specialists of tomorrow and as a platform for research projects to further develop the technology.
The aim is also to attract several other companies to settle in the immediate vicinity of the new film studio in the medium term, thus creating an internationally renowned film and virtual production cluster in the canton of Lucerne.
As part of this project, the business plan for the “film studio” will be developed and a suitable location found. Financing for the implementation of the business plan is not part of this project, although the necessary clarifications are being made.
