About dPost
dPost is a creative production and post-production studio based in Buffalo, New York. Its work spans commercial filmmaking, editing, animation, visual effects and audio, supporting projects from initial concept and design through finished delivery. Founded in late 1999, the company began full studio operations in 2000 and developed from a small editing-led business into a broader commercial content production operation.
The studio works with advertising agencies, regional and national brands, and clients across consumer products, healthcare, financial services, automotive and higher education. Its output includes broadcast and online advertising, branded content, music videos, animated explainers and independent film support. Projects range from filmed campaigns to imagery built around photorealistic products, simulated environments and animated characters.
Production and post-production
Creative and production services include concept development, scriptwriting, directing, cinematography, casting, art direction and shoot management. Post-production capabilities encompass offline and online editing, color grading, compositing, visual effects cleanup, sound design, audio mixing and ADR. These disciplines allow the studio to carry a project through successive stages of production while combining live-action material with animation and digital finishing.
Its animation practice includes 2D motion graphics, cel animation, character work, logo animation and photorealistic 3D product visualization. Fluid and environmental simulations extend that work into effects-driven commercial imagery. The company also offers Unreal Engine virtual production, alongside website design, interactive brand assets and digital marketing content.
An integrated production setting
The studio's Buffalo production environment combines shooting stages with editing, animation and audio facilities. Available settings include a hard cyclorama with greenscreen capabilities, a modular lifestyle interior with a functional kitchen, and an exposed-brick loft for natural-light filming. Stage and creative-suite rentals complement its commissioned production services.
A collaboration with the affiliated live-action business dStudio connects filming and crew operations with dPost's post-production pipeline. Together, these capabilities support projects requiring coordinated creative development, capture, animation, finishing and audio delivery.
