Our base

At the heart of Shanghai’s creative innovation.

Rooted in Songjiang District, Shanghai, AltNext operates at the crossroads of culture, technology, and global exchange — supported by one of China’s most dynamic hubs for film, media, and innovation.

Our Chinese team is based in Chedun Town, Songjiang, a high-tech creative ecosystem that has evolved from historic film sets into a thriving production and technology center. AltNext’s flagship venue, the Shanghai High-tech Film & Television City AI Creation Ecology Center, brings together storytellers, technologists, and industry partners on a campus designed for creativity and exploration.

Songjiang is not only a base for production and innovation, but also a destination celebrated for its cinematic heritage and creative culture — from immersive film experiences to international industry events and collaborations.
