About RiFF Studio

RiFF Studio is a Bangkok-based animation and digital production studio founded in 2009. Its work spans 3D character animation, visual effects, feature films, episodic entertainment, game cinematics and commercial content. The studio combines production services for international and domestic clients with the development of original entertainment properties and video games.

The company offers an end-to-end production pipeline, from story concepts, character design and world building through modeling, texturing, rigging, layout and animation. Lighting, shading, rendering, compositing and visual effects complete its production capabilities. It also provides motion capture and performance-data cleanup, alongside creature creation and digital assets for real-time engines. This range supports both fully animated productions and CGI elements integrated into live-action films.

Animation across film, series and games

RiFF’s screen work includes production for Netflix’s cyberpunk motorcycle series Tokyo Override and animation and 3D rendering for Studio Khara’s Evangelion: 3.0+1.0 Thrice Upon a Time. Its feature animation work also includes Out of the Nest and The Legend of Muay Thai: 9 Satra. In Thai live-action cinema, the studio has contributed hybrid animation and effects to May Who?, as well as CGI creatures and visual effects for Nakee 2 and The Pool.

For games, the studio produces cinematic trailers, character animation, environments and props. Supported projects include Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time, Crash Team Rumble, ELEX II and Apex Legends: Legacy. Its commercial work extends to advertising campaigns and animated digital concert performances, connecting its character and production capabilities with branded entertainment.

Original entertainment

Alongside commissioned production, RiFF develops its own intellectual property. Mantra Warrior: The Legend of the Eight Moons, also known as Hanumaan: The Mantra Warrior, reimagines the Ramayana in a futuristic science-fiction setting and extends into a companion trading card game. The studio has also expanded into game development with Dark Dimension, an original survival horror title set in Bangkok.
