Prime Focus World

General information

Multi-award winning Double Negative was founded in 1998 with a team of just 30 and is now one of the world's leading VFX houses with facilities in London, Mumbai and Vancouver: Through our steady and constant growth the Company has always sought to retain both the creative drive and involvement of its artists through all projects and a close collaborative working relationship with clients. This approach ensures films both small and large receive the same high standard of creative and technical service. This has proved a winning combination resulting in awards recognition from the Academy® Awards (for Inception, Interstellar and Ex Machina), BAFTA (for Inception, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 and Interstellar) and the Visual Effects Society (for Inception, Sherlock Holmes and Interstellar).

Recent work includes Star Trek: Beyond, Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, Captain America: Civil War and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.

2013 saw the launch of Double Negative Films formed specifically to provide VFX support and investment to British-qualifying productions, its first film being Ron Howard’s critically acclaimed Rush.

In addition to our award-winning film work, our television division DNegTV is soon to celebrate its third birthday. This thriving division tailors our skills and pipeline to the specific needs of high end television drama – its most recent projects include Marvel's Agent Carter, BrainDead for CBS, Fungus for Sky (for which DNegTV were BAFTA nominated), Ronald D Moore’s Outlander for Sony Pictures TV, Mr Selfridge for ITV (for which DNegTV were nominated for best VFX at the Royal Television Society Awards) and Death in Paradise for the BBC. DNegTV has also recently opened an LA office to tailor to the needs of their North American based clients.

Most recently, Double Negative set up a Feature Animation Division, created to work with IP creators and filmmakers in the creation of high end animated features. Feature Animation is currently working on its first major animated feature.
