VIRTUAL PRODUCTION

LED Wall Pixel Pitch Calculator & Virtual Production Planner

Convert physical LED wall dimensions and pixel pitch into estimated pixel dimensions, density, area, and total pixel count.

This worksheet does not predict moiré, camera distance, scan behaviour, processor loading, or render-node count. Confirm cabinet geometry and processor mapping with the LED supplier, then perform a camera test.

Total Resolution Width 4615 px
Total Resolution Height 1538 px
Pixel Density 9.8 PPI
Total Physical Pixel Count: 7,099,070 pixels  |  Rendered Output Area: 48 m²  |  Pixel Aspect: 3.00:1

Real-World Use Cases

VP Stage Design

Compare supplier pitch options against the physical wall size to estimate the raster that the processor and render workflow must accommodate.

Broadcast News Studio

Document the physical size, pitch, pixel dimensions, and area before a camera and moiré test in the intended studio geometry.

Render Cluster Planning

Use total pixel count as one input to render-cluster planning; confirm node count, frusta, redundancy, and processor constraints with measured performance.

Rental Spec Review

Evaluate an LED rental supplier's pitch specification against your shoot requirements before agreeing to a production spec.

What is the LED Wall Planner?

Calculates an idealised LED raster from wall dimensions and nominal pixel pitch. It also reports pixel density, area, aspect ratio, and total pixel count.

Real walls are assembled from discrete cabinets and modules, so the supplier's actual cabinet raster and mapping remain authoritative.

Real-World Use Cases

Useful for early stage sizing, comparing rental options, and preparing questions for the LED supplier and render team.

It does not determine processor saturation or render-node count because those depend on the actual processor, mapping, redundancy, frusta, content, and GPU workload.

Technical Methodology

Divides each physical wall dimension in millimetres by nominal pitch, rounds to whole pixels, and multiplies the two pixel dimensions for the idealised total.

Moiré depends on the LED pixel structure and scan, camera sensor, lens, focus, angle, distance, shutter, and processing. Establish acceptable camera positions with the real wall and camera chain.
