The corridor’s technology bellwether. West of Austin in Dripping Springs, Stray Vista Studios is home to what its team bills as the largest LED Volume soundstage in Texas. Founded by Nate Strayer, it soft-opened in February 2023 and had already hosted three projects out of the gate.
Its Volume stage wraps productions in giant LED walls driven by the Unreal game engine — the in-camera virtual-production approach behind shows like The Mandalorian, now a short drive from Bastrop. It is the piece of the Central Texas cluster that proves the region can do high-end virtual production, not just build square footage.
Sitting in Hays County, Stray Vista rounds out the corridor to the west, pairing with the Bastrop County anchors on the Colorado River and the planned San Marcos campus to the south.
