Film & CGI
Cinematic visuals that merge storytelling, motion, and design — engineered to perform at any scale.
From campaign films to product reveals, we craft cinematic visuals that fuse live-action precision with the unbounded possibilities of CGI. Every frame is built to land emotionally, perform across platforms, and elevate the brand.
We operate as a single integrated team — concept, art direction, modeling, lighting, animation, look-dev, compositing — all under one roof, all working in parallel. The result: shorter timelines, tighter creative coherence, fewer handoffs.

Common questions
How fast can you ship a campaign film?
Typical cinematic films land in 4-8 weeks. Our fastest hero spot was delivered in 9 days. We compress timelines through aggressive scoping, parallel pipelines, and pre-built look libraries.
Do you handle live-action shoots too?
Yes. We can lead the shoot, supervise on set for VFX-aware framing, then bring everything back into our integrated CGI pipeline. We also work with existing plates from any production company.
Can you match a specific director's visual language?
Yes — we routinely work alongside agency creative directors and brand teams. Reference packs, mood films, and look-dev tests are part of every kickoff so visual style is locked early.
What's the difference between Film & CGI and Realtime?
Film & CGI is offline rendering — the final pixels are baked, with maximum visual fidelity. Realtime (Unreal, Notch) is interactive and renders live — ideal for events, virtual production, or scroll-reactive web experiences. We do both.
TURBODIESEL is a Paris-based film and CGI production studio specializing in cinematic visuals for global brands. We combine the strategic thinking of an agency with the speed and precision of a production house.
Our integrated team handles every step — from concept and storyboard to final color grade — without external handoffs. This single-pipeline model lets us deliver campaign films, product reveals, and hybrid live-action / CGI productions in a fraction of the time of traditional production chains.
Recent CGI work includes hyperreal product films for Vuarnet (LVMH), Coty, and Viktor & Rolf; mixed live-action / CGI campaigns for Essilor; and full-CGI cinematic teasers for AAA gaming clients like Tencent. Whether you need a 30-second social spot or a 3-minute hero film, we scope, shoot, render, and ship — fast.
