The Visual Creatures Viz Lab is your creative partner from previs to final pixel. Our Los Angeles based motion capture facility and UnReal Pipeline allow us to capture a variety of performances, while our experienced team works closely with clients to ensure that every project is a success.
Our visualization pipeline is based entirely around its realtime offering, leveraging Unreal Engine in full compliment of studio-based tools. Gone are the days of grey-shaded assets and static figures. Filmmakers are encouraged to participate hands-on in our Viz Lab for more control and immediate result.
