So happy to be a part of this and looking forward to the future on storytelling, filmmaking, production and more here in Prince Georgeโ€™s County. โค๏ธ๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ–ค๐ŸŽฌ๐ŸŽž๏ธโญ๏ธโœจ๐Ÿ”ฅ | thanks to our wonderful Aisha Braveboy and partners | with .repost

I am excited to share a major milestone in Prince Georgeโ€™s Countyโ€™s growth as a media and entertainment hub.

Revolutionary VP Studios is investing here to open a stateโ€‘ofโ€‘theโ€‘art, 38,000 square foot production facility right here in Laurel.

This space will reshape how film, television, podcasts, and digital content are created on the East Coast. It will feature a 156 foot by 26 foot LED volumetric wall, immersive realโ€‘time environments, advanced production technology, and a oneโ€‘ofโ€‘aโ€‘kind event venue for highโ€‘end gatherings.

This investment means jobs, innovation, and new opportunities for our residents. It strengthens our creative economy and builds on the momentum we are seeing across the county, including transformative projects like the Sphere at National Harbor.

Prince Georgeโ€™s County is rising. We are attracting worldโ€‘class partners, expanding opportunity, and shaping a more innovative future for our community.

The team behind Revolutionary VP Studios says the Laurel-based facility will be the most technologically advanced virtual production studio in the world when it opens this October.

County Executive Aisha Braveboy says the project is part of a broader strategy to position Prince Georgeโ€™s County as a leader in technology, innovation, and entertainment.

What could this mean for local creators, students, and businesses? Stay tuned in to The Spotlight DMV for more.

Marvin Gaye - I Want You (Rehearsal, 1981)

I thought this rehearsal clip was really cool. Thereโ€™s something about seeing it stripped back with all the live instruments in the room that makes the song hit even harder. The groove feels looser, more alive, and Marvinโ€™s voice somehow sounds even better here than on the studio version; warmer, freer, like heโ€™s just floating over the band.

You can really hear how much of this music lived in the moment. No polish, no pressure, just musicians locked in and Marvin doing what he did best. It almost feels like youโ€™re sitting in the room with them, watching it come together in real time.

Enjoy.....
