It depends on the episodes and their dates, so we plan the schedule per episode and for the season. These are the things that move it:
How much does VFX cost for a TV series?
Per episode, it depends on the number and complexity of the shots; across a season, on what is built once and used again. Environments, creatures and set extensions that return are planned as assets from the first episode.
How long does VFX take for a TV series?
It depends on the delivery date of each episode, the assets built early, when the scripts and plates arrive, the number of shots per episode and the team across the season. We plan the schedule per episode and for the season.
Can you start from one episode?
Yes. Send one script or the whole season; the breakdown and the plan grow as the next scripts arrive.
How do you track VFX shots across episodes?
In our own tracking system: every shot has its status, versions and delivery date, so the season budget and the schedule stay under control.
What happens when an episode is rewritten?
The bid and the plan follow the script: shots are added or omitted, the schedule and the team are re-planned, and you see what changed in the budget.
Which methods do you use for series VFX?
2D, 3D, matte painting and compositing, chosen shot by shot, episode by episode.
Will you sign an NDA, and is my script kept confidential?
If your project requires an NDA, we'll gladly sign it. Either way, your material stays protected: only our core team sees it, and every member is bound by a strict NDA that forbids sharing any information received from third parties. Neither we nor they share anything about your request.
