About Orchard Post
Orchard Post is an independent UK creative studio specializing in visual effects, animation and post-production for feature films, advertising and brand communications. Founded in 2008, it has evolved from a south London post-production business into a fully remote studio, bringing together creative and technical contributors through cloud-based production workflows.
The studio offers creative development from script and concept through final delivery. Its work combines cinematic imagery, computer animation and commercial finishing, with projects ranging from broadcast advertisements and product launches to feature-film effects and large-scale event visuals. A distributed network of directors, artists, animators and developers supports its core creative team.
Creative and technical capabilities
Visual effects services include compositing, clean-up, digital environments, set extensions, previs and postvis. Animation work encompasses character creation, product visualization, motion graphics and stylized 2D and 3D imagery. Screen replacement and animated user interfaces form another part of its commercial practice, alongside editing, conform and finishing. The studio also incorporates generative and machine learning tools into production workflows for visual development, automation and asset creation.
Selected work
Orchard Post contributed visual effects and post-production to the 2024 feature film The Crow. Its commercial portfolio includes animated scenic imagery for Louis Vuitton’s Paris Fashion Week showcase, projected across more than 50 atrium windows, and a five-minute full-CG keynote film for Volvo’s 90/90 launch event through AKQA.
For Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Galaxy Z Fold 7 campaigns, the studio delivered screen replacements and animated interface composites through Harbor. It also created digital environments and phone-reveal sequences for a Nothing Tech launch presentation with House of Greenland.
Other work spans television sponsorship idents, automotive brand films, news-media advertising, consumer campaigns and technical visualization for space propulsion products. These projects demonstrate a practice that connects detailed compositing and animation with broader creative production for agencies, brands and entertainment clients.
