About Outlanders VFX
Outlanders VFX is an independent boutique visual effects studio based in Vancouver, British Columbia. Established in June 2021, the company works across feature films, episodic television and streaming productions, with additional work in independent cinema, commercials and sports broadcast campaigns. Its core discipline is digital compositing, supported by hard-surface 3D modeling and digital matte painting.
The studio brings together live-action photography, computer-generated elements and painted environments to finish visual effects shots and sequences. Its capabilities include photorealistic CG integration, multi-pass compositing, environment extensions, chroma keying, rotoscoping and tracking. Paint and preparation work covers cleanup, rig removal and beauty work, while its production services also include on-set visual effects supervision and creative consulting.
Film and episodic work
The company's feature-film portfolio includes The Black Phone, Cobweb, Love Me and The Princess Switch 3: Romancing the Star. It also contributed digital matte painting and compositing to Henry Selick's stop-motion animated feature Wendell & Wild, supporting work led by matte painting supervisor Heather Abels. More recent credited productions include Holy Days and The Backrooms.
Its episodic work includes Yellowjackets, Upload, Charmed and Goosebumps: The Vanishing. Outside film and television, the studio has delivered visual effects for Vancouver Canucks promotional material.
Outlanders works both as a production vendor and alongside other visual effects facilities. Its reported collaborations include Distillery VFX, OD Studios and Pixomondo, reflecting an operating model that combines a small core team with project-based artist scaling. The company also develops original cinematic work, including the science-fiction teaser The Outlander, alongside its commercial post-production projects.
More about Outlanders VFX
Founders and leadership
Erik T. Jensen and Camil Adell Nogués, both originally from Spain, are the studio's co-founders and co-owners. The research identifies both as visual effects supervisors and technical leaders. Before establishing the company, they worked together at CVD VFX and Crafty Apes in compositing, supervision and pipeline technology roles.
Production tools and practices
The reported pipeline includes ShotGrid for production tracking. The studio's original cinematic work demonstrates a combination of Unreal Engine and Nuke, using real-time visualization and cinematic pre-renders alongside compositing.
The founders describe sustainable work-life balance and creative mentorship as priorities in the studio's artist-centric approach; these are company-described aims rather than an independent assessment of employee experience.
Education and community
Jensen and Adell Nogués participated in a 90-minute discussion with Alpha Chromatica compositing students. They shared career experiences spanning compositing, lead and supervisory roles, technology leadership and studio ownership, providing students with firsthand perspectives on career growth.
