At Primary Visual Effects, we bring together a team of talented and accomplished artists dedicated to crafting beautiful visuals that elevate storytelling in Films, Television, and Commercials.

Founded in 2019, PrimaryVFX was born out of a shared passion for creative storytelling. Our four seasoned VFX supervisors, each with over 20 years of experience at some of the industry's most renowned studios, set out to build a studio that pushes the creative boundaries of VFX and harnesses the latest technology.

Our purpose-built studio is located in the heart of Bristol, designed for up to 30 in-house, as well as additional remote artists. This boutique setup allows us to foster a vibrant, supportive environment where our artists thrive while collaborating closely with clients to ensure every project receives top-quality service.
