See your launch film before it's made.

A 3D-rendered previz of your film: every shot, every camera move, every beat, cut to music. You approve it. Then we build that exact film.

Previz for the Tata Sierra #DARK Edition. The final film was released by Tata Motors.

Previz vs final

Same shots. Same camera. Same timing.

The previz decided the film. The final build made it real.

What a previz is

A film you can watch before it exists.

A previz is your whole film, built in 3D first. Your car is modelled from its real design. The world around it is blocked in. The camera moves are set like a real shoot: lens, angle, speed and timing.

It's clean and simple on purpose: neutral materials, stand-ins for people, number plates blurred. It locks the story, the shots and the rhythm, not the final look.

Changes are fast and cheap at this stage, so by the time we build the final film, there are no surprises.

What you get

Everything decided before we build.

#DeliverableWhat it is
01Full previz filmYour whole film as a 3D-rendered previz, cut to music, at final length. Ready in 3 to 5 working days.
02Shot listEvery shot numbered, with duration, lens, camera move and action.
03Camera and timing, lockedAngles, moves and the edit rhythm, ready to approve.
04Your car, accurateBuilt from your CAD files and reference photos, so proportions and details match the real car.
05Format checkKey shots framed for 16:9, 9:16 and 1:1, so the film works on every platform.
062 rounds of changesAdjust shots, order and timing before anything is built.

Once you approve the previz, it becomes the blueprint for the final film.

Where it starts

Your concept or ours. Either works.

A
You have the idea.

Send us your script, storyboard or treatment. We'll previz it shot for shot, so you see exactly how it plays before it's built.

B
You have the car.

Tell us the car, the launch and the market. We'll write the concept and show it to you as a previz. That's how the Tata Sierra #DARK film started: a black Sierra and a black Marwari horse on the white salt of Kutch.

CAD files and photos

CAD and photos give the most exact car.

CAD gives us the exact shape. Photos show every detail on the real one. Can't share CAD? Tell us, and we'll work out the best route.

CAD files

STEP, IGES, FBX, OBJ, Alias (.wire), or any common 3D format. Exterior is enough for most films. Add the interior if the film has interior shots.

Reference photos
  • High-resolution photos from every angle: front, rear, sides, three-quarters, roof
  • Close-ups of the lights, grille, wheels, badges and trim

Your files stay safe. We'll sign your NDA, use the files only for your project, and delete them after delivery.

Music and licensing

Music, sorted.

Music sets the rhythm of the film, so the previz is cut to music from day one.

1
You bring a licensed track.

Send the track with the usage rights for your platforms, markets and dates. We cut the previz and the final film to it.

2
We source the track.

We pick tracks from licensed music libraries that fit the film. You get the license paperwork with delivery.

If the final track isn't picked yet, we cut the previz to a temp track to lock the timing, then re-time the edit once the final track is in. Nothing goes live without a cleared license for every platform it runs on.

FAQ

Questions.

How close is the final film to the previz?

Shot for shot. Same framing, camera moves and timing. The final build adds the real look: materials, light and detail.

How long does it take?

The previz takes 3 to 5 working days. Once you approve it, the final film takes 5 to 7 working days.

Do we need CAD files?

CAD and photos give the most exact car, so send both if you can. Can't share CAD? Tell us, and we'll work out the best route.

Is our CAD safe with you?

Yes. We'll sign your NDA, use the files only for your project, and delete them after delivery.

Can we change things after seeing the previz?

Yes, and that is the point. Changes at previz are fast. Once the previz is approved, bigger changes cost more time.

Who owns the music license?

Whoever buys it. If you bring the track, you hold the license. If we source it, we hand over the license paperwork with delivery.

Can you previz a concept we already have?

Yes. Send the script or storyboard and we will previz it shot for shot.

Want to see your film before it's made?

Send us your car and your launch date. We'll come back within a day with how we'd approach the previz.
