Low Orbit
Feature film — 412 shots, CG & environments
Overview
How we approach cg & animation
Believable CG starts with reference. Before a single polygon is modelled we gather photography, scans and motion reference so every asset is grounded in something real.
Assets move through modelling, rigging, look development and animation with turntable reviews at each stage. Directors approve designs early, and animation is blocked against the edit so performance decisions are made in context.
Every asset is built to be reused across a show — the same creature can appear in a wide establishing shot and a close-up without rebuilding.

Workflow
From first sketch to final pixel
Fixed review points at every stage, so you always know where each shot stands.
- 01
Breakdown
We read the script, bid every shot and agree budget and schedule up front.
- 02
Previs
Sequences are blocked in 3D so camera, lenses and timing are solved early.
- 03
On-set supervision
Our supervisors capture HDRIs, lidar and reference so post runs smoothly.
- 04
Build & comp
Assets, FX and comps move through weekly dailies with your team.
- 05
Delivery
Final EXRs in ACES, conformed and QC'd to studio and streamer specs.
Can you work from our concept art?
Yes. We start from your concepts, run sculpt and turntable reviews, and only move to rigging once the design is approved.
Do you use motion capture?
We can work with captured data from your stage or a partner facility, and we clean and keyframe on top for performance.
