Somehow or the other, with rare exception, one of the elements fades into the background. Highly creative companies have that je ne sais quoi, but struggle to scale. Larger companies with stellar creative credentials often struggle to reclaim the distinctive culture of their earlier days. BOT is the result of a nearly dozen-year struggle to create a company that keeps these forces in balance: Creative Chops, Scale, and a Distinctive Culture.
We serve the creatively demanding post-production needs of the film and television industry globally, serving some of the biggest and smallest production houses, VFX facilities and agencies across several continents. We provide services ranging from rotoscopy, paint and matchmove to compositing involving CG elements and particle effects, and asset development. We work efficiently with clients who have some of the most sophisticated pipelines in the world.
Our scale is significant not only in terms of the number of artists we employ, but in other dimensions as well. We’ve worked on tens of thousands of shots, we transfer terabytes of data with our clients every month, and we’ve worked with nearly 350 clients around the world. We interface with countless client pipelines, each with their own nuanced requirements. We are always recruiting and always training our team members.
We have nurtured a culture that embraces the fun in everyday things, and that our team (and many others) recognizes as having a heart. We take our work seriously, but ourselves, not so much. In our pursuit of scale, we have been cautious to avoid dulling down the cultural senses. Process, roles, policies and structure are necessary to achieve scale, but we make them fit within the context of the heart, soul and character of nomousfx
