About Fish Flight Entertainment
Fish Flight Entertainment is a Canadian animation, visual effects and real-time cinematics studio founded in 2016. Based in Vancouver with a production branch in Winnipeg, the studio works across video games, film, television, streaming animation and branded entertainment. Its production work encompasses pre-rendered and in-engine cinematics, marketing trailers, character animation and virtual filmmaking.
The company has evolved from visual effects post-production into an external development partner for game publishers and entertainment producers. Its capabilities span creative direction, asset development, animation, real-time production and finishing, supporting both cinematic storytelling and the creation of assets for interactive projects.
Creative and production capabilities
Fish Flight’s creative services include directing, editorial, key art, motion graphics and animatics. Its asset teams provide 3D modeling, digital matte painting, environment art, texturing and rigging. Animation services cover keyframe performance, motion capture, previs, postvis and in-game cinematics.
Unreal Engine is a central part of the studio’s real-time offering. Its capabilities include lighting, texturing, Blueprinting, virtual production and in-engine filmmaking. Alongside these workflows, the studio provides character effects, hair and cloth simulation, rigid body dynamics, real-time particles, post effects and compositing. This combination supports projects that draw on both traditional visual effects production and game engine technology.
Work across entertainment
The studio’s portfolio includes game announcement films, launch trailers, animated series trailers and music video production. Its game marketing work includes trailers for The Chant, Unknown 9: Awakening, UFC 4 and The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners – Chapter 2: Retribution. Other projects include the Fall Guys cinematic event trailer “Silent’s Memories” and the animated official music video for Pearl Jam’s “Retrograde.”
Fish Flight also provides visual effects and animation-related services for screen productions, including visual effects vendor work on Sonic the Hedgehog 2. Its broader production offering connects film and television techniques with real-time game development workflows.
