Our Clients

I never want to do another film without NEXODUS. Their creativity, flexibility, and ability to provide quick post-vis AND refined final shots are hard to beat. We initially hired them as our in-house team, but they quickly became one of our most trusted vendors at all complexity levels. I cannot recommend the NEXODUS team highly enough.

I was excited to have NEXODUS join us on Avatar: The Last Airbender and their team of artists came through once again with creative solutions to the various artistic and technical challenges we threw at them.

Over the years I have found myself chasing artists over companies which is exactly where NEXODUS excels. I can take comfort in knowing the work will be done right because of the people doing the work. It was a very collaborative experience working with NEXODUS; they felt like they were part of our team beyond the normal vendor/client relationship.

I loved working with everyone at NEXODUS. They were all incredibly talented and practical and excellent communicators. They consistently over delivered while never overpromising. Deadlines were always met and better ideas on how to do stuff were always presented. Just don’t have enough good things to say about the entire team.

I’m honestly still amazed at how awesome, big and movie-quality the Ghost Girl shots are every time I watch the music video! I was asking for ‘Predator’ and ‘The Abyss’ on a tiny fraction of the budget, time and tools, and what Ryan and the NEXODUS Team delivered is astonishing!

We really appreciated all the hustle from NEXODUS. They turned around a lot of VFX in a short time, and our client was really happy with the results.

The movie looks beautiful and everyone is happy! We cannot thank NEXODUS enough for helping us with the enormous amount of shots that came our way over the last few months, and the madness of the last week that had us add another shot just hours before delivery. What an incredible achievement, we could not have done this without our NEXODUS team.

NEXODUS bridged a pivotal gap between a full scale vendor and dedicated in-house team. Their flexibility and skill allowed us to constantly hit the shifting demands of a project with a too-tight budget and equally too-wide scope. Moreover, NEXODUS’ ability to spin-up 3D capabilities when 2D efforts failed meant our producers stayed happy and overages were averted. Thank you, team NEXODUS – can’t wait to work with you again.
