About PIC Agency
PIC Agency is an independent entertainment design and motion graphics boutique based in Los Angeles, California. Founded in 2005 and also operating as PIC Collective, the studio creates title sequences, visual identities and screen graphics for feature films, television, streaming productions, advertising and live broadcasts. Its work combines conceptual design with animation and post-production, serving both individual productions and wider entertainment campaigns.
Title design is a central part of the studio's practice. PIC develops main and end titles, credit crawls, graphic treatments and animated sequences that introduce a production or extend its visual language. Its feature work includes the opening historical sequence for The Kingdom, main titles for The Cabin in the Woods, Twilight, The Wolverine and 42, and stereoscopic titles and vision sequences for The Final Destination. Other supplied credits include The Bourne Ultimatum, Jason Bourne, Fantastic Four, Punisher: War Zone and No One Will Save You.
Design across entertainment formats
The studio's services extend from creative direction, concept development and storyboarding through design, animation, compositing and editorial finishing. It produces 2D and 3D animation, entertainment marketing graphics, trailers and promos, network packaging, screen interfaces, and production company logos. These capabilities support work across theatrical cinema, television, commercial campaigns, independent documentaries and televised events.
For television, PIC has contributed promotional visual design and motion graphics to productions including YOU, All American and Big Sky. Its broadcast work also encompasses episodic graphics, title design and event packaging, with supplied projects spanning The Flash, Supergirl, Crisis on Infinite Earths and Live PD.
Live-event graphics form another strand of its output, including on-screen packages for the Academy Awards, Billboard Music Awards, MTV Video Music Awards and Critics' Choice Awards. Documentary work includes titles, motion graphics and archival sequences for Be Natural: The Untold Story of Alice Guy-Blaché, reflecting the studio's use of graphic storytelling across both fictional and factual productions.
More about PIC Agency
Founders and creative leadership
Pamela B. Green and Jarik van Sluijs co-founded the studio in 2005. The research identifies both as creative directors; Green is also described as a producer. Before PIC, van Sluijs worked in motion picture advertising and title design, including work on Van Helsing and The Bourne Supremacy.
Creative approach
The company's stated philosophy is that “the idea dictates the design,” beginning with an idea sketched on paper. Its multidisciplinary methods include hand-drawn animation, live-action cinematography, microcinematography and practical effects alongside digital techniques.
For the opening of The Kingdom (2007), the studio combined 128 archival and news clips with motion graphics to create a historical timeline of Saudi–U.S. relations. The sequence was subsequently included in IFC's list of “The 50 Greatest Opening Title Sequences of All Time.”
Recognition
PIC Collective received a 2013 Key Art Award in Audio/Visual Technique for the titles of The Wolverine.
