Loop Lab Studio recently returned from InfoComm 2023, the renowned AV industry trade show, held in Orlando, Florida this year. Our studio, academy, and admin teams were honored to be invited to participate. At InfoComm, The Loop Lab had the incredible opportunity to collaborate with the talented AVIXA Production team in filming behind-the-scenes (BTS) footage of the latest AV technologies being showcased. In working with AVIXA, we received a special invitation from Vu Studio to film their cutting-edge Virtual Production XR Volume Stage in Orlando. Adding to the excitement, Media Arts Apprenticeship alumni Abraham Lopez, Amanda Caballero, and Coy Walker played a vital role as part of the production team responsible for capturing the mesmerizing virtual technology stage.

In addition to our involvement with InfoComm 2023, Loop Lab Studio has been working on an inspiring documentary project in partnership with the University of Edinburgh’s International Network of Scholars & Activists for Afrikan Reparations (INOSAAR). This project focuses on Benin’s culture and explores the topic of reparations in the African American Diaspora. We were privileged to be hired to record interviews with African-American diasporic individuals residing in Massachusetts. As the project progresses, our studio will also assist with post-production by involving our esteemed interim production manager, Abhi Indrekar, as an editorial consultant.
Furthermore, we would like to introduce the Boston Media Arts Empowerment Award, a unique award driven by Loop Lab Studio and funded through the Mayor’s Office of Arts & Culture in Boston. This award will uplift emerging artists from underestimated backgrounds by providing the video and/or audio services needed for greater exposure within the Boston arts community. Valued at $1000.00 per production, this award exemplifies our commitment to elevate and amplify the voices of Boston-based artists. From July 3 to July 31, 2023, we will be accepting our first round of applications. Over the course of 20 months, we will assist 30 talented individuals in bringing their artistic visions to life.
Loop Lab Studio continues to push boundaries and collaborate with industry leaders to create innovative and captivating audiovisual experiences. We are grateful for the opportunities we have been given and look forward to the exciting projects that lie ahead.
