Previs & Postvis

Plan complex sequences before the cameras roll, then lock edits faster with rough comps that show the story early.

6 core capabilities

How we approach previs & postvis

Previs is the cheapest place to make expensive decisions. We block sequences in 3D with real lens data so directors, DOPs and stunt teams can solve camera, timing and safety questions before anyone is on set.

After the shoot, postvis puts rough versions of VFX shots into the edit. Editors can cut with real timing instead of blue screen, and studios can preview the story long before final shots arrive.

Because previs and postvis live in the same pipeline as final VFX, cameras and layouts carry forward instead of being rebuilt.

Previs & Postvis: common questions

All questions →
When should previs start?

As soon as the sequence is scripted. The earlier camera and timing questions are answered, the cheaper the shoot becomes.

Can postvis be upgraded to final shots?

Often, yes. Postvis is built in the same pipeline, so cameras and layouts carry straight into final production.
