Mainframe

Mainframe is a creative production studio based in London and Manchester, specializing in motion graphics, animation, and visual effects. Established in the late 1990s, the company has built a reputation for delivering high-quality visual content for a diverse range of clients, including major broadcasters, advertising agencies, and global brands. Their portfolio encompasses title sequences, channel branding, commercials, and promos, showcasing a versatility that spans from photorealistic 3D animation to stylized 2D graphics.

The studio is well-regarded in the industry not only for its creative output but also for its technical innovation. Mainframe played a significant role in the development of MASH, a procedural animation toolkit for Autodesk Maya, which was subsequently acquired by Autodesk and is now a standard tool used by animators worldwide. This technical expertise underpins their creative work, allowing them to execute complex visual concepts with precision and efficiency. With a team of directors, designers, and animators, Mainframe continues to push the boundaries of visual storytelling, combining artistic vision with cutting-edge technology to produce compelling and memorable content.
