About Nobody Studio

Nobody Studio is an independent French 3D animation and visual effects studio founded in 2020 by Sébastien Chort and Grégory Jennings. Based in Montpellier, it provides external production services for animation producers, game developers, and film and television projects. The company operates as a worker-owned cooperative, with its artists working together on-site while collaborating with international production partners.

Lighting and visual integration are central to its work. The studio handles both pre-rendered imagery and real-time environments, spanning key lighting, shot lighting, cinematic lighting, and in-game level lighting. Its broader capabilities include environment and prop modeling, vehicles, landscapes, cityscapes, deep compositing, and creative look supervision. It also develops compositing tools, gizmos, and sequence templates to support production delivery.

Nobody Studio can contribute before final image production through previs, blocking, motion capture integration, and video and sound editing. Its supervision services extend to CG pipeline advice, artist mentorship, and team development. This combination allows it to support individual production stages or contribute across several connected parts of a project's visual workflow. The studio adapts its work to clients' established software, proprietary pipelines, and production schedules.

Animation and game production

Its animation work includes lighting, modeling, and compositing contributions to several episodes of Love, Death + Robots, including “Swarm,” “Bad Travelling,” “Life Hutch,” and “Screaming of the Tyrannosaur.” It also contributed key lighting, lighting, and compositing to the “Exodus” episode of Secret Level.

In games, its work includes previs and in-engine lighting for DOOM: The Dark Ages, real-time lighting for Starfield and Starfield: Shattered Space, and lighting for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. Other projects include modeling, lighting, and compositing contributions across Call of Duty productions and The Elder Scrolls Online cinematics. These projects reflect the studio's focus on integrating assets and lighting into both rendered cinematic sequences and interactive game environments.
