About No Ghost
No Ghost is an independent British studio creating immersive stories, real-time animation and interactive experiences. Based in East London, it brings cinematic storytelling into virtual, augmented and mixed reality, combining narrative design, CG production and software development to build worlds audiences can explore and influence.
Its work spans narrative entertainment, cultural installations, museum experiences and commercial campaigns. Projects range from character-led VR adventures to mobile augmented reality and interactive exhibitions, with production capabilities covering writing, interactive direction, real-time worldbuilding, procedural asset generation and XR engineering. The studio develops both commissioned experiences and original intellectual property.
Stories built for interaction
The studio developed Madrid Noir, a 45-minute VR mystery adventure set in 1930s Madrid, in collaboration with Atlas V. Its approach pairs animated storytelling with an interactive format, giving viewers a role within the unfolding narrative. No Ghost subsequently worked with Aardman Animations and Atlas V on Wallace & Gromit in The Grand Getaway, contributing gameplay direction and interactive CG to bring the characters into virtual reality.
Its cultural work explores music, movement, memory and social history. Built by Sound, produced with Dialled In for Bradford 2025 UK City of Culture, examines British South Asian youth culture and resistance. Off the Record uses an interactive archival documentary format to explore British South Asian musical history and the Daytimers collective. Other projects include Ēkhṓs, an augmented reality experience connecting movement with shared digital sculpture, and an interactive installation for the Oman Across Ages Museum.
Expanding immersive formats
Beyond established productions, the studio's reported development pipeline includes multiplayer mixed reality, wellness experiences and original narrative games. Grow combines meditation, mindfulness and plant cultivation for Meta Quest, while other development work includes a romantic role-playing game for PC and Steam Deck. This mix of public commissions, collaborative productions and original development connects its animation practice with interactive entertainment and emerging immersive formats.
