The studio is open to external VTubers, Vsingers, companies, and individuals, offering the motion capture environment and production know-how that mikai built while producing 3D content for its own talent. Clients can use LUMISTA for motion capture sessions, recording and streaming of 3D live performances, MV and video production, and short videos, depending on the purpose. The company says it will take consultations ranging from short capture sessions to large-scale projects such as live production, drawing on its experience running an agency. The name LUMISTA combines Luminous and Stage or Studio, a reference to optical motion capture, which reads movement through light captured by cameras, and to the light used in live performances. An official website is live at lumista.jp.","whyItMatters":"Mikai is selling the same 3D production capability it uses on its own VTubers, which puts an agency operator in direct competition with the outside studios and vendors that VTuber companies normally hire.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eTwo projects mikai produced for its own talent are listed by name as prior 3D live work: a new costume debut for Shishigami Leona and a solo live for Kiwa Suu. The company presents that in-house production record as the qualification it brings to outside clients.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe service is sold by purpose rather than as a single package. A client can book 3D motion capture, record or stream a 3D live performance, produce an MV or video content, or make short videos. mikai says consultations cover the full range, from a short motion capture session to large-scale live production. Individuals and corporations can both apply.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe name breaks into Luminous, for light, and Stage or Studio. The explanation ties both halves to the method: optical motion capture reads movement through light captured by cameras, and the same light colors live performances and stages. mikai defines optical motion capture in its own materials as capturing light with cameras and turning human movement into data.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"LUMISTA sells the capture setup mikai built for its own Re:AcT talent. The agency is now a vendor to the same VTuber market it competes in, and its production know-how is the product, not the studio.","twitterPost":"LUMISTA turns mikai's in-house 3D pipeline into a service for rival VTubers and companies. The agency becomes a vendor to the market it competes in.","threadsPost":"LUMISTA packages the 3D capture setup mikai built for its own Re:AcT talent and rents it out to other VTubers, Vsingers, and companies. The agency now sells production know-how to the same market it competes in, which makes the consulting side of the business as load-bearing as the talent roster.","newsletterBlurb":"Mikai, the operator of VTuber agency Re:AcT, has opened its 3D motion capture studio LUMISTA to outside clients as of September 18, 2026.
