This one took a while to see the light of day. Worth the wait.
We worked with the brilliant team at TUNA production and directing duo Stylewar on a commercial shot in the Alps — one single day, one extraordinary location.
The story follows a young woman moving between worlds — from the sharp geometry of a video game into open nature — and finding herself along the way. Our job was to make that transition feel real. To make you believe both worlds, and the moment she crosses between them.
Really proud of this one where we used our battle tested AI technologies for face replacement to great effect.
Thanks everyone involved, it was super fun to work on.

Working With Cancer 'Strings'
We could not be prouder to have helped Niclas, Iconoclast and Publicis Conseil bring this beautiful, poignant and important film to life. Working with Niclas, we created and crafted a sensitive simulation of the cancer spread visualisation, added additional CGI strings, including water simulations. All while ensuring all our work was completed with the utmost respect to the in-camera craft.

Lufthansa ‘All it takes is a Yes’
Director: Niclas Larsson @larssonniclas
Director of Photography: Maximilian Pittner @maximilianpittner
The film unravels the intertwined stories of two strangers, brought together by a mysterious, almost otherworldly connection. At the heart of their bond lies an enchanted doorway to the world, capable of transporting them to any place on Earth with a simple touch. Through breathtaking landscapes and intimate moments they embrace the thrill of travel and the beauty of human connection. The story blossoms into a poetic exploration of wanderlust and love, leaving audiences entranced yet yearning for more.
As the final scene fades, we are left suspended, pondering what wonders might have emerged if @larssonniclas had the canvas to fully chart their journey—a tantalising glimpse into a story that promises so much more.
