HOW CAN YOUR BUSINESS USE VIRTUAL PRODUCTION?
The Rundown
We're based in the heart of San Francisco, but work virtually to make and animate custom-made characters that look and act the way you want — from hyperrealism to Pixar-quality cartoon mascots. All produced remotely at a fraction of the typical cost.
Turnaround in as little as a week, with variations overnight.
Our virtual production pipeline is fast, cost effective, convenient and adaptable for any production of any size — from the smallest concept pitch to feature quality scenes, and can be used for a myriad of projects:
- Virtual Hosts for training programs (from Captivate to video modules)
- Advertisements
- Characters and mascots for videos and campaigns
- Dramatizing sequences for scenarios
- Showing complex procedures
- Pre-Visualizing productions
- Demos / Proof of concepts / Pitches
We’ll work behind the scenes with your team to provide this to your clients as a production solution especially in these COVID times.
And the best part (contrary to common thinking) CHANGES ARE EASY AND FAST. No need to reshoot, everything is live, easy to modify, and change.
Character Design
Create any Character
We’ll create a ultra high resolution fully rigged animation ready character or virtual host based on your design requirements — down to gender, age, nationality, hair style, clothing, and even personality. We can capture faces from photos and create 3D versions of real people.
These characters can be photo-real or, if you like, have more of a Pixar cartoon look.
Environments
Custom Settings
We will create the environment to your specs. Need an office? Warehouse? Or Ted talk studio, its all part of our service.
Animation
As Used In:
- The Mandalorian
- Stranger Things 3
- WestWorld Season 3
- Avengers: Infinity War
- Black Panther
XSENS Full Body Motion Capture
We use the latest in XSENS Motion Capture suits and MANUS VR gloves to do real time motion capture. We also have access to a library or thousands of pre-recorded interactions — from workspace interactions to even action sequences.
True Expressions
We use iClone and Unreal Engine to add real time face and lip animation to any recorded dialogue — and any language!
THE PIPELINE
Flexible to the Project
We are based in San Francisco, and have our own remote motion capture artists and animation specialists. Founder and producer Grant Spink will work with you to ensure a seamless experience.
Our typical production can range from seconds to minutes, following a Virtual production workflow:
- Script outline / possible storyboards / concept art
- Design of character / motion tests
- Design of environment / lighting test
- Production script
- Casting of voice talent — remote
- Audio recording of script — remote studio
- Motion capture of movement / face — remote studio
- First cut review / tweaks
- Output of final segment - Any format from 2K to 8K
The turnaround time is possible in under one week depending on the complexity. We love working off “napkin ideas” for quick reaction and presentations.
All of this is done remotely with no need to visit studios.
