What happens when a client wants to relaunch a campaign but the footage no longer fits the story? 🎬
For a recent project for Zerto, we combined studio-shot footage with digitally rebuilt assets to create an entirely refreshed content library!
That’s where creative problem-solving, VFX, and AI-driven workflows came together,extending the life of the campaign while opening up new creative directions.

Scene generation just got a whole lot quicker!⚡
Through combining traditional 3D animation with AI tools, it's now possible to evolve a simple greyscale into a fully realised scene... quickly, and with control.
Speed without compromise, powered by our team and our platform, AI Animation.
The focus is shifting beyond standalone AI tools toward something more meaningful: dependable production environments that can support creative output at scale.

When iVisit Media asked us to document the FATAL FURY: City of the Wolves Times Square boxing event, we knew this wasn't going to be your typical production 🥊

🎥 Our team racing between all five boroughsÂ
Our documentary crews captured a week of pure chaos and turned it into something cinematic. Sometimes the best stories happen when you're ready for anything.Â
Big love to iVisit Media for bringing the vision — and the fight — to Times Square 👊
Synima Senior Editor Tom Clark believes every story deserves respect, no matter how mundane or heavy it might seem. His approach combines technical mastery with cinematic inspiration and experimental influences to transform any brief into compelling content. Â
Our favorite tip from Tom? “Watch movies. Just watch movies. If you’re editing, watch movies with the sound off. Just watch all sorts of movies. Go see experimental stuff. Get weird.”

Here’s to a week of bold ideas💡💪
Great stories don’t come from tools alone.
They come from people who know how to use them.
At Synima, AI gives us speed and flexibility but the craft still comes from the producers, directors, editors and designers shaping every frame.
Human storytelling. That’s where the real work happens.
Behind every seamless production is a carefully orchestrated plan and a producer who knows how to navigate the unexpected.
Here's our top three strategies that keep our productions running smoothly, even when challenges arise.
