ThinkingMedia Is A Full Service 3D Animation Company

Located near Toronto (Ontario, Canada) this 3D animation studio has a seasoned team that is highly knowledgeable in 3D graphics, visual effects (VFX), television commercials, and game production. Our balanced blend of technical knowledge and creative spark allows us to work closely with our client's existing production pipelines, or deliver completed productions within budget and on time.

We start by creating top-notch visualizations and supercharged 3D animatics using Autodesk 3ds Max on every project. Story boards for television commercials and visual effects (VFX) shots are delivered to clients at the beginning, allowing clients to participate in the creative process from start to finish for the entire production.

There are many 3D animation companies out there, but few that have the technical expertise to deliver cost effective 3D animation and visual effects (VFX). Our expertise has created a production pipeline that involves constant inspection by the client, allowing their feedback and revisions to be seamlessly incorporated into the 3D production process.

"Agility is a must-have skill for any 3D animation studio in today's highly competitive market. Clients expect a non-linear creative process with the ability to make changes at any time."  Mathew Foscarini - founder of ThinkingMeda.

We have created a production proven pipeline that allows our modellers, texture artists, animators and render wranglers to work seamlessly together, allowing client change requests at any stage in the production to be incorporated with little or no impact on assets down stream in the pipeline..

We Give Your Project The Personal Touch!

Clients have direct access to the 3D artists, 3D animators and technical directors working on their project. Modern Web conferencing tools allow clients to see and interact with all members of the production giving our clients the personal experience of a small agile 3D animation studio while delivering the quality often produced by large film production companies..

Choosing The Right 3D Animation Studio

There are thousands of 3D animation studios offering similar services across Canada and the United States. Deciding on the right creative company for your project can be challenging, but it doesn't have to be. Today's modern 3D applications are becoming more complex in nature. ThinkingMedia uses Autodesk 3ds Max and Chaos Group's V-Ray on every 3D animation project. Our 3D animation team led by Mathew Foscarini has years of experience and training mastering these professional tools. So, choose ThinkingMedia because we have the right people, the right technology and the right experience.

How Much Does 3D Animation Cost?

ThinkingMedia doesn't charge a flat daily rate like most large animation studios. Rather we discuss the project with the prospective client, collect information about the complexity and elements involved in the 3D animation and then deliver a written estimate (usually as a fixed price) that best matches the goals of the client. Contact us for a detailed price sheet..

How About Character Animation and Stories?

ThinkingMedia offers a wide range of services related to Character Design and Character Animation. Our team can deliver complete short stories, animated sequences for television or games, and deliver Character Rigs ready for use in production pipelines.

Most Common Visual Effects for Film and Television Commercials

We will use one or more of the following technologies to complete a visual effect shot for a 3D production:

• Particle systems and particle effects including computer generated smoke, fire and explosions.
• Dynamic simulations of fire, water and clothing.
• Camera matching and camera tracking data will be matched with 3D scenes.
• Human actors will be replaced by realistic computer generated actors.
• Buildings, structures and landscapes will be extended or modified using 3D graphics.

 We want to exceed your expectations and it starts by providing you with a FREE written estimate that includes our production process, details of your shot sequences, and technical breakdown of your project.
