One producer — and everyone you need
You talk to one producer. Behind them is a steady pool we’ve already shot with: directors, DPs, designers, CG artists, composers and sound engineers. Every brief gets its own lineup.

System Ø
Our pipeline runs on our own local AI. One system holds the script, the breakdown, on-set data, shot versions and every meeting decision. After each meeting it writes the summary and the report. Everything is structured and by the book.
Local AI
Project data never leaves for third-party services
GPU farm
Our own — for rendering and simulations
70%+
of processes automated — from meeting minutes to project reports
The journey matters as much as the frame. We sharpened this system on the industry’s mistakes, our own included — which is why we think it’s the best on the market.
We create — or help bring your idea to life
We come up with the idea from scratch or take an agency’s idea all the way to air. Script, concept and PR — worked out together, as one team.

Cute, but we’ve seen it. An office, routine, everything grey… and then a rhino walks in 🦏
10:07CG supervisor
We’ll build the rhino fully in CG: skin, weight, dust under its feet
10:09Creative producer
And at the end he paints the whole office. Escape the routine!

Shooting for VFX
Casting, locations, sets, a PPM with every department. On set our supervisor makes sure the footage drops into CG with no reshoots.
And we run the friendliest shoots you’ve ever been on: a smiling client on set matters to us.
Our reels get shared
We shoot and cut verticals people want to send to a friend.
Dali Collection: a 45-second film and 10 vertical versions.
Versions: 16:9, 9:16 and 1:1 — for TV, online video and social.

PICTURES · Magnit
Characters thatcaptivate
Design, 3D, rigging, animation and lighting — from sketch to a character who shares the frame with a creator.
“Skrepyshi TOP” for Magnit — the characters and all campaign VFX in six weeks. The MyLamby lamb became the brand’s mascot.
Skrepyshi TOP · MagnitWe bring entire worlds to life
We build in CG what’s too expensive or impossible to shoot: cities, spaces, media facades.

MegaFonAIAIAI!that’s how we roll :)
We go hybrid: live action, CG and neural networks in one spot — each tool where it’s strongest. We’re first to try new tools and put them straight to work.
Parade: a paint commercial that aired on Match TV during the 2026 World Cup. Neural networks generated the pictures; the team called the framing, the rhythm and the brand.

Burger King AGENCY / PICTURES · Lacra
Parade: an AI spot on Match TV, Russia’s national sports channel
For Lacra paints we came up with a spot about talking walls — it aired during the 2026 World Cup. Generative tools made the pictures; the team called the framing, the rhythm and the brand.
Dali Collection: a film and 10 verticals
We pitched Rogneda four ideas — the client picked the boldest: an escape from office routine, guided by a rhino. The rhino is 100% CG.
Center for Future Professions · 2024–2025
CPB: a huge expo of future professions
We made films about professions: the host travels the history of a trade from Ancient Rome to the future. People were shot on set; eras and worlds were built with neural networks.

How we run every project — from a single shot to a full series.
On your team
We join at any stage. We build on the director’s choices instead of replacing them.
We reply within an hour
Business hours, GMT+3. A real answer — the same day.
Agreements — in writing
A recap after every meeting: decisions, deadlines, tasks. Nothing slips.
Revisions — as agreed
Rounds and sign-off order are fixed before we start.
Rights — before we start
Music, talent, locations and third-party materials are cleared before the shoot.
Air date at risk? You’ll hear it early
Along with what to simplify to make it.
Notes on a Friday night? We’re on it
We reply within an hour — even on Fridays. Revision rounds and sign-off order are fixed before we start.
The chat is staged. The response time is real.

Hi! It’s Friday, 7:47 pm. One tiny tweak? 🙏
19:48Producer
Hi! We’re here. Tiny tweaks are our favorite genre

20:02Producer
His human stepped out. Whiskers is covering
20:05Brand manager
Going with 7%. And can the sky at the end be a bit warmer?
20:06Producer
The director is already explaining to the colorist what “a bit warmer” means
20:08Brand manager
You’re the best 🧡
20:31Producer

Yep 🙂 Approved?
20:34Brand manager
NO NOTES. APPROVED!
20:34Producer
The rhino says thanks — have a great weekend!
Footage doesn’t burn
Studio server
Working files in our server room in Moscow
Hot copy
A second copy of everything shot
Cold copy
Drives in a fireproof case
Everything we shoot lives in our own server room in three copies. Fire, hardware failure, accidental delete — the footage survives. Source files come to you neatly foldered; masters are made to broadcaster and platform specs.
Dailies
Right on the frame. New versions every day, rough ones too: a note is cheaper on a draft than on a final render.
