Yoko

 In 2012, we co-produced this German family adventure about a friendly Yeti-like character named Yoko. We designed and created Yoko both as an animatronic costume and in full CG. The CG production consisted of 148 shots with roughly eight minutes of animation of the furry digital character and various particle effects.

We don’t make dreams come true.

We make them real. And if you like what you’ve seen us do for others, imagine what we could do for you. Because what we’ve done is only the starting point. We are constantly reinventing our expertise and using it in previously unknown ways, blurring the edges between what’s real and what’s possible. All you have to do is watch, because we’re not just aiming for the rainbow – we want to go beyond. Contact us
