Q01
Laptops
From a 16-year-old's blog to field notes on a Toughbook in Kandahar. The actor's keystrokes can drive it, or an off-camera operator can run it remotely.

Our world is full of screens. We fill them.

01 What we do
In the palm of a hand and on the side of an office tower. In the doctor's office and the Oval Office. Text messages, satellite imagery, surveillance footage, crime scene simulations, email, flight tracking, GPS and photos. Accurate, cue-able, repeatable motion graphics, built for the story and played back live on set.
Since 1997 our operators and graphic artists have filled the screens on more than 100 shows and films, and we've kept changing as the technology has.
02 Services
Every screen in the shot.
If it lights up on camera, we design it, build it and run it. Each cue plays the same way every take. Every still below is our work, from the show.
Q02
Computers
Police bullpens, call centers, home offices. We can match a real interface exactly, throw back to Windows 8, or build one that only exists in your designer's head.
Q03
Phones & tablets
We control content on Apple and Android devices: calls, texts, websites and video, loaded on the device and played back on cue. That saves you time and money in post.
Q04
Televisions
A bar TV in the background or a featured newscaster. From a 24-frame CRT to a 100-inch flat panel, your material plays cleanly with nothing to fix later.
Q05
LED & video walls
Video walls, banks of monitors, stadium LED and Jumbotrons. Choreographed graphics at any size, with LED engineering support on set.
Q06
Video games
Original games with all rights cleared, ready to license and formatted for desktop, tablet or phone. Our artists can also animate a custom game to your script.
Q07
Screen replacement
When a screen is better finished in post, our graphics team works with editorial to deliver exactly what's needed for replacements and green-screen burn-ins.
Q08
Visual effects
Animated plates, tracking and roto, title sequences, 3D ships and holograms. We've removed signage, license plates, rigging and even people from shots.
03 How we work
From script to screen.
-
00:00:00:01
Script breakdown
We read every draft and break out each screen the story needs, scene by scene.
-
00:00:00:02
Concept
We work directly with writers, directors and producers on the look and the story beats, for on set and for post.
-
00:00:00:03
Design & build
2D and 3D content made in current design tools and matched to your art department.
-
00:00:00:04
Live on set
Graphics are animated for real-time control. Our operators run every cue on our own playback systems and hardware.
-
00:00:00:05
Post handoff
We work with post on screen replacements and burn-ins so the finished picture matches what was shot.
04 On set
More than graphics.
The gear, crews and code that make the scene work.
