Stardust Effects

Stardust Effects is an independent visual effects and animation studio working across film, episodic television and advertising. Founded in Norway in 2017, it operates through integrated hubs in Oslo and Athens, bringing together Scandinavian and Mediterranean production capabilities for Nordic and international projects.

The studio creates photorealistic digital environments, set extensions and CGI alongside compositing and animation. Its work spans effects that support live-action storytelling, digitally constructed settings and commercial imagery. Productions can engage the team for on-set VFX supervision as well as post-production, connecting the planning and capture of effects shots with their execution and finishing.

Production capabilities

Its services cover modeling, texturing, animation, matchmoving, tracking and effects simulation, supported by technical direction and look development. Compositing includes deep compositing, while motion graphics, title design and color finishing extend the studio’s offering across film, television and commercial production.

The Oslo and Athens teams share a unified production pipeline. This structure supports collaboration across the two hubs and international co-productions, with the studio also offering guidance on Norwegian and Greek audiovisual incentives. Its Athens expansion established a production base in Marousi alongside its original Norwegian operation.

Selected work

Stardust Effects served as the primary VFX vendor for Joachim Trier’s Sentimental Value. Its feature-film portfolio also includes Kampen om Narvik, The Quake, Handling the Undead, Quisling’s Last Days, The Snow Sister and Sulis 1907.

Television work includes Snøfall 2, Kuppel 16, the second seasons of Beforeigners and Heimebane, and the third season of Ragnarok. These projects sit alongside commercial assignments for brands including Vy, Telenor, Posten Norge and DNB. Across these markets, the studio combines VFX supervision, CGI and finishing within its production offering.
