Basic Info

Piranha Bar’s VFX and Animation studio has a 20-year history of high end VFX-driven content. Situated on a grand square in the heart of Dublin, the multi-storey building houses numerous Nuke and 3D seats along with a busy edit house and motion capture facilities. The studio specializes in advanced digital characters complimented by our in-house ‘AniMotion’ performance capture pipeline capable of delivering incredible emotional depth and sophistication in facial animation and motion capture.

The studio has a strong R&D culture where the exploration of cutting edge techniques compliments our battle tested teams and infrastructure to deliver on all challenges, big and small. Our combination of award winning creative talent and passion for the latest image making tech enables us to make a unique contribution to any project.

We have recently completed VFX work on Netflix’s Bodkin. The series was created through Barack and Michelle Obama's Higher Ground Productions and has become one of Netflix's most watched to date. The creature FX department has just wrapped on a very special contribution to our first series for Sky Studios.

Our work in commercials and content has been the recipient of over 50 awards including coveted Gold Sharks for VFX (including a win for Post Production Company of the Year 2021), a digital Emmy for animated feature doc ‘Last Hijack’ and the studio was recognised by Epic Games with a MegaGrant last year for our real time character VFX project ‘IRL’.
