Planet X FX is a creative, flexible post-production studio that understands the narrative function of visual effects.
Planet X FX builds a bridge between pre- and post-production and supports the vision of the filmmaker in all possible aspects. Our background is in filmmaking: a thorough understanding of what goes into making the content, and of the creative process, is what sets us apart from other post-production houses.
Planet X FX works together intensively with the 3D animation studio Happy Ship in Groningen.
