Animated sequences intended for the pitch process to support a script with visuals for securing talent, a greenlight, or to prove a director’s creative vision.

On-set production support, working side-by-side with all departments for visual continuity, as well as on-site Previs trouble shooting if location, equipment, or time force production to alter previously planned Previs.

Syncing Previs digital-assets into the post-production pipeline, to create a blueprint for the post and VFX teams. This establishes a clear and detailed asset list for VFX to design from, while saving production time and money.
