Muse VFX is one of the world’s leading VFX houses that has created one of the most efficient yet artistic VFX studios in Hollywood today. Its artists have used Fusion on some of the biggest films in recent years, including Columbia Picture’s “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo,” Lionsgate’s “Safe” and Dreamwork’s “Fright Night,” as well as dozens of hit television shows.

“We’ve been working with Fusion for years. It's been the clear winner for us with its amazing node based architecture and incredible feature set. Fusion has enabled us to create anything our clients have requested. The speed of Fusion has always been fast, but with version 7, there is a noticeable boost in performance,” said Fred Pienkos, founder and VFX supervisor at Muse VFX.

Outlining their diversity in creating top quality VFX for any type of project, the Muse team also recently received the prestigious Visual Effects Society Award for Outstanding Visual Effects for their work on the Space Shuttle Atlantis Exhibit at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex in Cape Canaveral, Florida.

“By using Fusion in our day to day film and television workflows, we are able to confidently drive the best possible work in special venue projects. Fusion easily tackles large format projects with speed and is easy to customize for less common pipelines, such as multi camera projections and installations. This was essential for the Kennedy Space Center project,” said Pienkos.

“Fusion’s 4K toolset, along with Generation’s playback capabilities, have provided us with the means to effectively deliver on time and on budget, over and over again. With the ability to go from pre-vis to post production in one application, we are able to offer efficiencies that other products can't touch,” he continued.

With Fusion 7 Studio now available, facilities worldwide have begun the migration to Fusion’s new offering.

“We are very excited to see how Fusion 7 Studio will integrate into our VFX pipeline. Blackmagic has a great reputation for building upon the products they develop, so we’re all really happy with Fusion’s new home,” Pienkos concluded.
