Our take
The Foundry's products help tackle complex visualisation challenges in the creative industry, for example to create amazing digital effects or sequences for feature films. As technology advances, the scope of amazing things that can be done with video increases but so does the complexity.
Clients include industry leaders like Pixar, Walt Disney, Google and Mercedes, so their product is clearly up to scratch. The challenge will continuing to advance their product to keep up with new technologies to stay ahead of the competition.
