FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you might want to know, up front.

1
How does AlphaVFX get involved before the shoot?
Think of us as your creative partner across the whole process—not just in post. By involving us early, we can anticipate and solve both technical and creative challenges before they become costly bottlenecks. This opens up more storytelling possibilities while keeping the budget under control. The production team gains greater confidence and flexibility on set, knowing the VFX plan is built in from the start. It’s a smoother, more cost-effective approach than “fixing it in post,” and it sets your production up for success from day one.
2
And what does on-set supervision look like?
We stay closely involved during the shoot to make sure everything set up in pre-production translates smoothly on set. Our team provides on-site or remote supervision, advising on camera setups, lighting, tracking, and practical effects so shots are captured in the most VFX-friendly way. This protects the creative intent, avoids costly reshoots, and keeps the production moving efficiently. By being present in production, we ensure the footage comes into post already set up for success.
3
How does AlphaVFX handle post-production?
Post-production is where our craft comes fully to life. With efficient pipelines and a highly trained Nuke and 3D team, we focus on delivering invisible VFX that integrate seamlessly into the story. Our process is designed to minimize revisions and maximize speed, keeping quality high while protecting delivery schedules. Because we’ve been involved since the start, post becomes a smooth, predictable process rather than a fire drill.
4
How do we handle final delivery?
We deliver final shots with the same discipline and reliability that runs through every stage of our process. Shots are tracked, versioned, and quality-checked to ensure they meet the highest standards. Our clients can count on us for punctual delivery, clear communication, and results that stand up on any screen, anywhere in the world.
