About Planet X STORM
Planet X STORM is an Amsterdam-based visual effects and post-production studio working across feature films, episodic television, commercials and immersive media. Its capabilities connect creative development, production and picture finishing, bringing together visual effects, virtual production, title design, editing and color grading.
The studio traces its origins to Planet X, established in 2004. On June 26, 2026, Planet X and Amsterdam post-production company STORM announced their merger and rebrand as Planet X STORM. The combination brought their teams and technical pipelines together, extending the studio’s established effects capabilities with editorial, grading and finishing expertise.
From development to final delivery
The studio’s visual effects work spans concept art, digital environments, 2D and 3D animation, photorealistic compositing and on-set supervision. LiDAR scanning, photogrammetry and production data capture support the creation and integration of digital assets. Its services also include custom AI workflow solutions for production and post-production.
For virtual production, the team develops Unreal Engine environments and provides in-camera visual effects design, real-time tracking, asset integration and volume supervision. These capabilities connect digital environment creation with filming, allowing visual effects decisions to take place during production as well as in post.
Title design and motion graphics encompass main title sequences, bespoke typography, branding and motion design. The picture post-production offering includes online editing, DaVinci Resolve color grading, digital intermediate work, audio conform, mastering and international deliverables. Together, these disciplines support projects through a continuous production and finishing pipeline.
Film, television and immersive work
The combined portfolio includes iHostage, The Takeover, Another Round, The Lobster and WIL, alongside series such as The Wheel of Time, The Last Kingdom, El Eternauta and One Hundred Years of Solitude. For iHostage, the studio delivered extensive in-camera visual effects and digital replication of Amsterdam’s Apple Store. Its work also extends to immersive attractions, theatrical experiences and commercial campaigns.
