Custom captured 16k Stitched Plate of Los Angeles

Window Cleaners premiered at the 2025 Tribeca Film Festival earlier this year.

"When two undocumented window cleaners witness a domestic conflict inside a high-rise apartment, they must decide whether protecting their jobs and livelihoods is worth betraying their moral responsibility."

Spectraland provided a custom 16k stitched plate as the backdrop, a custom LED rolling pop-up wall, and virtual production consulting for the project.

Needless to say, this would have been a difficult task for an indie production of this size to shoot practically. The LED wall offered a great alternative, not of course without its own limitations. That said, being able to get nearly 70-80% of shots in-camera and with real reflections made a huge difference for a very tight post production schedule.

Congrats to Director Sylvie Weber and the entire 271 Films team for an excellent film.
