- drawn
- 2D digital
- 3D digital
- stop-frame
We also have a sustainably resourced render farm, running Pixar’s Renderman, which will support parallel processing of projects using Maya, 3DS Max, or Adobe After Effects.
The method you use for each project is up to you, and is driven by conversation with staff to determine which method will best suit your idea and your preferred way of working.
You have a choice of working on projects in a team or on your own.
