Virtual production studio Dimension has secured a multi-million-pound investment from US-based private equity firm Growth Catalyst Partners (GCP).
Dimension’s credits include Masters of the Air (Apple), Whitney Houston biopic I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Sony Pictures), and the forthcoming Those About to Die (Peacock) and Here (Sony Pictures).
The virtual production studio said the investment would lead to the expansion of its UK and global production capabilities.
For GCP, the Dimension investment adds to its portfolio of innovative creative studios including Squint/Opera, ICRAVE, and Journey.
Last month, Dimension expanded its partnership with visual entertainment services company DNEG, to create DNEG 360, alongside the debut of its two studios in London and Rome.
