Arri has made Arri Solutions its own business unit and established two new senior-management positions to address the growing demand for high-quality virtual production, systems integration and workflow development.
Kevin Schwutke is Arri’s new senior vice president and head of business-unit solutions, and David Bermbach is the company’s new vice president and technical head of business-unit solutions.
Arri Solutions designs, engineers, builds and operates virtual-production environments for corporations, broadcasters and studios. With experience leading major studio projects from consultancy to configuration and turnkey installation, it offers end-to-end service with the promise of Arri quality.
“We’re seeing great demand from our customers for our expertise in developing and delivering advanced, highly integrated solutions that ensure production value at the highest level,” says Arri Executive Board Chairman Matthias Erb, Ph.D.
Schwutke, who recently joined the company, adds, “Arri already has a showcase of pioneering virtual-production and broadcast-studio projects all over the world. Establishing Arri Solutions as a business unit means we can expand our capabilities together with our partner network, ensuring we can not only meet but also exceed our customers’ expectations.”
“Arri’s heritage for quality and delivering the most authentic images is unparalleled in the industry,” adds Bermbach. “This deep understanding and expertise provide the foundation for our development of cutting-edge software, tools and workflows specifically designed for virtual production and ultra-modern studios.”
Schwutke previously held positions at Bosch, Porsche Consulting and ClimatePartner. Bermbach joined Arri in 2006 and has held a number of senior technical positions, most recently head of global technology for Arri Rental.
