VFX Planning

Working together with you from Pre-Production onwards, we offer our experience to help you find the best solutions for your planned VFX shots. We always take into account the particular needs and conditions of the production. Through early communication with the writers, the Director, the DoP and the Production Team we can help to reduce shooting time and lower the costs. Our goal at all times is first and foremost to realize your creative vision.
 

Set Supervision

During principal photography we supervise the shooting of VFX shots. In a close dialogue with the Director, DoP and Production we aim to optimize the live action footage for later treatment in post production. We are capable of reacting flexibly to the actual conditions on set, and thereby helping to create a flawless shooting process.
 

VFX Supervision

To guarantee an adequate realization of your vision after principal photography we also offer the supervision of the VFX team in Post-Production. As the connecting link between creative direction and VFX specialists we coordinate the assembly and development of the necessary technical infrastructure and supervise the VFX work. In close communication with the Director and the Production we take responsibility for a technically excellent result, providing final images of the highest possible quality.

The animation director is the connecting link between director and animation studio. He detects the most efficient approach for any given animation project and translates the director´s vision into clear instructions for the animation team, both, creatively and technically.

From the least significant background butterfly to historical armies up to computer generated hero characters: A competent animation direction is not only beneficial for fully animated movies but also for smaller scale side animations. With our experstise we offer our support already during planning and especially during main production of animation projects.

For a detailed preparation of principal photography we offer Pre-Visualisations. With simplified 3d animations we can provide a preview of complete sequences, much like a test shoot but considerably quicker and cheaper. For a comparatively small effort pre-visualizations offer a broad opportunity for experimentation, allowing the DoP and the Director to try out creative ideas before principal photography. Furthermore we can extract detailed data from the 3D pre-visualizations, such as camera position, required lenses, distances, green screen dimensions and set decoration elements. This helps to simplify and speed up the preparation process.

Stereo 3D can transform your images into an even more immersive experience for the audience. We can help you make the most efficient use of stereo 3D by establishing a global stereo concept for your production, integrating visual effects into stereoscopic imagery or converting 2D pictures into 3D stereo. It is our goal to support the creative content with the means of stereoscopy, rather than creating distracting superficial 3D effects.
