About PixStone Images
PixStone Images is an Indian visual effects and post-production studio serving international feature films, Indian cinema, television, streaming productions, commercials and music videos. Commercially active under its studio brand since 2012, it provides offshore VFX production for projects ranging from Hollywood features to domestic blockbusters and episodic series. The company is based in Chennai, with integrated production branches in Hyderabad and Pune.
Its work spans the detailed shot preparation, tracking and finishing tasks that support larger visual effects sequences. Core disciplines include rotoscopy, paint and prep, matchmove, rotomation and compositing, alongside CGI, animation, digital matte painting and stereoscopic conversion. These capabilities cover both invisible effects and the integration of digital elements into live-action footage.
Shot preparation and finishing
Rotoscopy services focus on extracting live-action mattes and tracking shapes through a shot. Paint and prep work includes removing rigs, wires, markers and unwanted artifacts, generating clean plates, reconstructing backgrounds and applying cosmetic adjustments, including aging and de-aging.
The studio’s tracking work covers cameras, bodies and objects, with scene reconstruction supporting the placement of digital content. Rotomation aligns animated bodies and props with photographed action. Compositing brings together keyed footage and multiple rendered passes, matching lighting and integrating elements through final delivery. Its 3D services extend this work through CGI asset integration and animation enhancements.
International production support
PixStone operates a process-oriented offshore service model built around secure delivery and collaboration with overseas VFX supervisors and client facilities. Its regional production hubs connect into a central pipeline, supporting coordinated work across South and Western India.
The studio serves both international entertainment productions and Indian film industries, including Bollywood, Tollywood and Kollywood. Its portfolio spans feature films and continuing episodic productions, reflecting a business focused on production services across cinema, broadcast and streaming. This combination of preparation, tracking, compositing and 3D capabilities supports its role as an outsourcing partner within wider visual effects production workflows.
