Automotive CG SPECIALISTS
At Dark Matter FX we are one of the premiere post production houses specializing in Automotive CG in the world. Unlike most post houses in this sector, we don't hire assistants or interns, 100% of the work will be done by the best senior animators, VFX artists, riggers, and editors in the business. Instead of spending half of your post budget subsidizing an overpriced office, designer furniture, and fancy cookie jars, we utilize a virtual workflow that helps offer optimal working conditions for our team while allowing us to under bid any post house offering automotive CG.

Environments
As a post house we have done CG environment work for many large scale commercial and non-commercial projects, such as features, TV, and the automotive industry. If you have a real car and would like to put it in a CG environment or would like to go full CG and put a CG car in a CG environment, we've done it for all the big automotive brands worldwide.
We also offer CG environment work for live events in the Auto sector, having recently completed CG environments for fully immersive experiences combing real cars with practical effects and animated backgrounds.
Exteriors
No one can compete with our attention to detail when creating your car's exterior. Using photo reference, we meticulously create custom materials for your car and make sure they respond to lighting as they would in the real world.
For example, our headlights are not just composited 2-D images, we will recreate the exact structure of every piece of glass in your headlights to perfectly reproduce the optics of your headlights in the real world.
Interiors
Interior details are nearly impossible to shoot with a high key aesthetic or even achieve the angles or camera movement your creative calls for. With our detail oriented approach we will not just create flawless photo realistic renditions of your car interiors, but make them look better than real life through our seasoned understanding of texture and material creation. Combined that with our flawless lighting techniques, and we can give you those detailed interior shots that just aren't possible in the real world.
Internal Mechanics
Having a team of veterans who have been working on automotive CG for the past 20 years means we know better than anyone else how to pull off highly precise animations depicting realistic simulations of internal mechanics.
We are experts in showcasing the latest breakthroughs of the automotive evolution using CGI to demonstrate new emerging technologies. We’ve broken down just about every part of a vehicle, from aerodynamics to valve timing, exhaust braking to dynamic suspension control. We’re able to effectively communicate to consumers the innovative aspects of your vehicles that make them stand out from the crowd.
Live Action
Live Action integration is one of the most common requests that we get. We got you covered whether you need a real car replaced with a CG car, an actor in a real car composited into a CG environment, or any combination you can imagine of live action and CG compositing. This is can be done in the most cost effective manner when you hire our VFX supervisor to be on set, however we can also work backwards for when you're in a post pickle!
