About Magnopus

Magnopus is an immersive experience studio and creative technology company founded in 2013 by visual-effects artists Ben Grossmann, Alex Henning, and Rodrigo Teixeira. Working across entertainment, spatial computing, and real-time 3D, it develops cross-reality experiences that connect physical environments with digital worlds.

Its work spans augmented, virtual, and mixed reality; interactive spatial experiences; virtual production; digital humans; volumetric capture; and applied research and development. The studio combines creative production with systems architecture, software and hardware development, real-time environment building, and technical supervision for LED-volume and in-camera visual-effects workflows.

Immersive production and platforms

Magnopus supports projects from concept and prototyping through production and technical delivery. Its capabilities include:

  • AR, VR, MR, and web/mobile immersive experiences
  • Virtual art department work, real-time production pipelines, and LED-volume integration
  • Unreal Engine, UEFN, Unity, MetaHuman, and procedural-content workflows
  • Virtual concerts, interactive narratives, and location-based entertainment
  • Digital twins, geospatial visualization, and IoT-connected spatial interfaces
  • Hyperreal digital avatars and volumetric performance capture

The company also works across media and entertainment, games, music and live events, aerospace and education, industrial facilities, cultural institutions, automotive launches, and themed entertainment.

Selected work

Magnopus has contributed virtual-production workflows to The Lion King and developed NASA’s Emmy-nominated VR experience Mission: ISS. Its recent work includes virtual art department, systems-design, and LED-volume operations for Fallout; The Daft Punk Experience in Fortnite; The Wizard of Oz at Sphere; Disney+’s Remembering and its iOS AR companion; The Office World in Meta Horizon; and the cross-reality geospatial platform for Expo 2020 Dubai.

Additional projects include Alo Moves XR, Blade Runner 2049: Memory Lab, Westworld Season 4, Elixir, the Holocaust Museum Los Angeles augmented-reality app, and virtual music experiences involving Karol G, Metallica, Madison Beer, Sebastian Yatra, and Michael Bublé.
