Prime Focus London is a high-end post production facility formed as a result of the merger between Clear Post Production Ltd, The Hive Animation Ltd and VTR Ltd. It provides visual effects, CGI, DI and telecine services to the international commercials, broadcast, music video and film industries.

Prime Focus London is pioneering a new business model in the UK post production market by offering the possibility of securely outsourcing both creative and technical elements of projects to its award-winning parent company in India. Whilst each project is directed by a well-known London name, tasks that do not require on-site creative supervision and input can be shared with Prime Focus’ Indian facilities using a high-speed secure pipeline, thus increasing the available resources to approximately 750 staff and significantly lengthening the working day.

The new UK facility boasts 12 VFX suites, each using the latest Autodesk 2007 kit and extensively supported by Combustion and Fusion workstations. VTR’s esteemed team of colourists, known for their grading expertise and DI (digital intermediate) experience, have a dedicated floor within the new facility offering three Spirit telecine suites (including one at 4K) and a Lustre Incinerator, which allows the team to run a true 2K “realtime” workflow. Furthermore, Prime Focus London’s CGI team has been increased in capacity by 40 per cent due to the overwhelming demand for their skills.
