About Fast Effect
Fast Effect is an experiential technology, interactive design, and creative production studio based in Royal Oak, Michigan. Founded in 2014, the studio combines digital experiences, animation, and live-action production for physical environments, commercial communications, and broadcast media. Its work connects custom interactive hardware with software and visual content for exhibitions, brand centers, and touring activations.
Interactive experiences
The studio develops sliding monitor displays, object-recognition tables, multi-user touchscreen kiosks, driving and mission simulators, and mobile augmented reality applications. These formats support product demonstrations, recruitment experiences, educational presentations, and branded interactions. Its services extend from visual concepts and custom 3D assets through software development, hardware integration, and on-site deployment.
Simulation is a recurring part of its portfolio. Projects include multiplayer submarine missions and flight and dive experiences for U.S. Navy recruitment, alongside a General Motors and Chevrolet driving simulator demonstrating SuperCruise technology. The studio also creates interactive product configurators and exhibition displays for industrial and metrology businesses, translating equipment and technical information into navigable digital experiences.
Animation and production
Fast Effect's animation capabilities include 3D product modeling, mechanical visualization, photorealistic environments, dynamic physics simulations, and motion graphics. Its production offering also encompasses live-action filming, editorial, visual effects, broadcast commercials, corporate communications, and public service announcements. This combination allows the studio to produce both interactive experiences and the supporting filmed or animated material used across event and media channels.
The company's markets include automotive and mobility, defense and government, industrial manufacturing, healthcare, consumer brands, sports, and public service organizations. Its supplied portfolio includes trade show work for the International Manufacturing Technology Show and Natural Products Expo West, permanent corporate displays, and national mobile exhibits. Alongside these installations and activations, the studio produces television and digital public safety campaigns, reflecting a business that spans experiential technology and conventional screen-based production.

Production methods
The studio uses Unity for real-time software development. Its interactive systems include curved and straight motorized rail-mounted screens and optical and capacitive object-recognition tables. Its four-player submarine simulator combines fabricated station controls, dual mission screens, talkback headsets, and synchronized multiplayer objectives.
Collaboration and integration
Fast Effect worked with Chicago Exhibit Productions on the Liquid I.V. Bodega ATM activation, combining branded digital loops with physical prize-receipt printing. Its 2026 Mitutoyo installation connected more than 50 detailed 3D metrology models with badge scanning, API event integration, and dynamic QR code equipment mapping.
