It’s an iOS and Android  camera app like Instagram or Snapchat but very different. You load a "scene" or location from your camera roll or MediaBook.tv and shoot or livestream a subject inside our blue screen Pop-up Studio and your subject appears in that location in broadcast quality, empowering everyone to shoot "on location" from home or office. The Be Anywhere app performs real-time Chroma key background replacement while recording or live-streaming. You can take regular snapshots or videos and it works independently of our Pop-up Studios, but the app is optimized for use with our 10x better studios that solve the physics problem in light that every content creator faces. When the app is paired with one of our Pop-up Studios users obtain broadcast quality background replacement. To livestream, simply connect to connect to your home Wi-Fi to “go-live" and live-stream your video. The controller box also acts as a router and has 10 stereo inputs for wireless mics and instruments. The app has a 10-channel mixer on the camera display screen.

The panel lights are adjustable with directional capability toward the subject with full 180 degree control (up and down to the floor). Lighting upgrade kits may be available at a later date for higher wattage needed for rooms with ambient light that cannot be eliminated. The panel lights and tube lights are individually controlled by the Be Anywhere camera app (and the user) using a proprietary communication system via Wi-Fi with our controller box that sits on the floor next to the Pop-up Studio.
