About Morro Images
Morro Images was a German 3D animation, character creation and visual effects studio based in Potsdam-Babelsberg. Established in 2008, it produced CGI for feature films, television and commercials, combining commissioned production work with the development of original animated projects.
Character production was central to its work. Its capabilities included design, modeling, texturing and rigging, alongside keyframe animation and motion capture processing. The studio also provided visual effects supervision, compositing, matchmoving and 3D tracking, with additional expertise in stereoscopic production, scanning and digital environments.
Television and original animation
Its television work included visual effects post-production for the third season of Weissensee, produced by Ziegler Film for ARD/Das Erste, and digital effects for Network Movie’s ZDF miniseries Morgen hör ich auf. These commissions formed part of a broader practice spanning broadcast effects and animated character work.
Morro Images also wrote and produced StrAngel – The Angel of the Odd, a 2013 animated short based on Edgar Allan Poe’s story. Its original feature development included The Enchanted Island and Arara & The Guardians of the Amazon Rainforest, the latter developed as a co-production with El Tuerto Pictures. These feature projects were described as development work rather than completed releases.
The studio’s business combined production services with original intellectual property development and co-production. Its German production operations wound down around 2023–2024, and its original website subsequently became inactive. Its portfolio therefore represents the work of a historical production operation rather than evidence of currently available services.
