About RPM VFX Studios
RPM VFX Studios is an independent visual effects and post-production studio founded in 2018 in Chennai, India. With a Canadian presence in Toronto, it provides outsourced shot work for feature films, television and streaming series, commercials, advertising campaigns, and digital media. Its work spans visual effects preparation, tracking, compositing, and animation tasks for international entertainment productions.
The studio’s capabilities cover several stages of live-action visual effects production. Rotoscoping includes high-precision subject isolation, stereo dual-plate work, and blue- and green-screen keying. Digital paint and preparation services address rig and wire removal, unwanted objects, scratches, camera artifacts, and background recreation. Facial de-aging and digital beautification form another part of its image cleanup capabilities.
Tracking, compositing and animation
RPM VFX Studios provides camera, object, and body tracking to support the alignment of digital elements with photographed footage. Its 2D and 3D compositing work includes digital set extensions, crowd replication, and integration of computer-generated imagery into live-action material. The studio also offers facial animation and lip-sync services, extending its capabilities beyond preparation and compositing.
Its reported portfolio includes productions such as The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, Stranger Things, Wednesday, The Little Mermaid, and Extraction 2. These projects reflect its focus on film and episodic visual effects across productions associated with major studios and streaming platforms.
The company combines its Chennai production operations with a Toronto client liaison and on-site production presence. This arrangement supports coordination with North American studios and supervisors while the business serves entertainment productions across North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region.
