DNEGs Feature Animation division has been slowly building over the past couple of years and we are delighted to officially launch the new facility! Together we will bring the vision of both major Hollywood studios and independent productions to life.

We aim to compete with the best in the business and will depend on our Character TDs to create animation rigs for characters, creatures, props and vehicles. From time to time, it may be required to implement proprietary tools to aid in the creation of animation rigs. This is a team effort so you'll work closely with our Rigging Supervisors and Animation Leads/Supervisors to develop the most suitable rigging solutions.
