VFX Services for Media and Entertainment

01

Media and Entertainment context

Studios, OTT platforms and events businesses producing at volume.

For media and entertainment teams, VFX sits inside an approval chain, not outside it. Rights clearance for music, footage and talent. We build that into the schedule rather than discovering it at the sign-off stage.

• Promos and trailers — briefed, scripted and delivered as a distinct asset rather than a cutdown afterthought.
• BTS content — briefed, scripted and delivered as a distinct asset rather than a cutdown afterthought.
• Title packaging — briefed, scripted and delivered as a distinct asset rather than a cutdown afterthought.
• Awards films — briefed, scripted and delivered as a distinct asset rather than a cutdown afterthought.

What good looks like in this sector

Promo packaging determines click-through on crowded OTT shelves.

We would rather cut a scene in the script than discover the problem in the grade. In media and entertainment, the most common failure is a film that is technically excellent and commercially silent — beautiful footage that never states the proposition. We test the script against the buying decision before the camera is booked.

03

What vfx services actually involves

Invisible cleanup through to full CG set extension, planned at the storyboard stage.

We would rather cut a scene in the script than discover the problem in the grade. For VFX, that means deciding early whether the film is doing persuasion work, explanation work or proof work — because those three jobs need different structures, different running times and different crews.

A typical engagement runs 3-8 weeks and is delivered by vfx supervisor, compositor, roto artist, fx td. There is no shoot day and no location to permit — the work is built in our studio from nuke, houdini, on-set hdri capture, which is why the schedule is driven by approvals rather than by weather, traffic or access.

04

What you receive

Deliverables are agreed in writing before production starts, so nothing is negotiated after the fact. The standard package for VFX includes:

• VFX breakdown
• Comped shots
• Cleanup passes
• Element library

05

How we run the project

Six stages, each with a named owner and a dated checkpoint.

• Delivery and measurement: Platform-specific masters, captions, thumbnails, source project files on request, and an asset index. We review performance after 30 days.
• Discovery: A 90-minute session with the people who own the outcome. We leave with the audience, the proposition and the single action the work has to drive.
• Script and storyboard: A written script, then a storyboard or styleframe set that shows exactly how the finished piece will look before a single frame is built.
• Design and asset build: Style is locked on approved styleframes. Characters, product models, UI and typography are built to that lock so nothing is reinterpreted mid-project.
• Animation and assembly: Blocking pass, then full animation against the approved scratch voice track. You review at blocking and at first full pass, before render.
• Finishing: Render, colour, sound design, mix and graphics conform in a calibrated suite. Two structured revision rounds sit inside the schedule.

06

Investment and what moves the number

VFX Services projects typically sit between Rs 1L - Rs 40L. The variables that move that figure are finished runtime, the number of unique scenes or assets built from scratch, the complexity of the style, and how many revision rounds you need beyond the two included.

We quote in three tiers against the same script so you can see exactly what an extra day or an extra grade session buys. What we do not do is win the brief on price and rebuild the margin through change requests.

• Included as standard: a named producer who answers the phone, not a ticket queue.
• Included as standard: a storyboard approved before production time is spent.
• Included as standard: two structured revision rounds priced into the quote.
• Included as standard: project files and source assets handed over on request.

Media and Entertainment teams we produce for across Mumbai

VFX is built in our studio, so there is no site access to arrange. These are the pockets of the MMR the briefs come from.

• Diva (Thane) — Warehousing, transport and last-mile logistics operations. Anchored around Diva junction. The mix leans towards documentary-style films, culture content and CSR stories.
• Shil Phata (Thane) — Warehousing, transport and last-mile logistics operations. Anchored around Shil Phata junction. Work here is usually process films, safety content and trade-show loops.
• Waghbil (Thane) — Planned townships and new nodes with wide roads and modern architecture. Anchored around Waghbil Naka. Requests cluster around leadership interviews, annual films and internal comms.
• Pokhran Road (Thane) — Planned townships and new nodes with wide roads and modern architecture. Anchored around Pokhran Road No 2. Briefs here skew to founder films, product stories and recruitment content.
• Kamothe (Navi Mumbai) — Planned townships and new nodes with wide roads and modern architecture. Anchored around Kamothe sectors. Most work here is capability films, customer testimonials and launch content.

Five ways media and entertainment VFX projects go wrong

Most failed video projects fail for the same handful of reasons. These are the ones we plan against.

• Writing to a runtime instead of a message: Ninety seconds is a constraint, not a brief. Decide what has to land, then cut to fit.
• Treating voice over as an afterthought: The scratch track drives the timing of every cut. Cast the voice before animation, not after.
• Supplying assets late: Brand kits, product CAD and legal copy arriving mid-build is the single most common cause of a slipped delivery date.
• Approving a script without a storyboard: Words read differently from frames. Sign off the boards and the revisions collapse from ten rounds to two.

Working with us

We are a Mumbai production company that works to a written scope, a fixed schedule and an agreed deliverable list. Briefs come in from marketing heads, founders, HR leads and agency partners, and all of them get the same first step: a conversation about the outcome.

If a video is not the right answer, we will say so. That has cost us projects and won us clients.
