UFX Studios

UFX Studios is a Belgian visual-effects and digital post-production studio founded in 2010 as the VFX branch of Umedia Group. Working across feature films, television and international co-productions, it combines creative VFX production with production-facing planning, on-set support and access to Belgian audiovisual incentive structures.

The studio’s work spans photorealistic effects, digital environments, creature and CG-character animation, matchmoving, tracking, FX simulation and high-end compositing. Its teams support productions from early budgeting, concept work and previsualization through on-set VFX supervision, LiDAR capture, virtual location scouting and final image delivery. Real-time workflows for in-camera VFX and previs are also part of its offering.

Production approach

UFX Studios works on productions requiring both technical image-making and cross-border production coordination. Its services include support for Belgian Tax Shelter eligibility and regional incentive planning, alongside pipeline integration with Umedia Production. The studio also collaborates with Digital District in Paris to help co-productions combine Belgian and French incentive routes while retaining separate operating structures.

Its technical toolkit includes Houdini for procedural environments and FX, Nuke and NukeX for compositing, Unreal Engine for real-time and virtual-production work, and ShotGrid and Avid for production tracking and editorial workflows.

Selected work

Its credits, including work released under the earlier Umedia VFX name, include Dog 51, Kaamelott : Deuxième volet, partie 1, The Countess of Monte-Cristo, Dalloway, Loups-Garous, The Abyss / Avgrunden, Fallen, Medellin, The Claus Family films, Shadows in My Eyes, Mortal, Guns Akimbo, What Happened to Monday?, Grace of Monaco, Marseille and My Brilliant Friend.

Following a rebrand from Umedia VFX, the studio has positioned UFX Studios as a distinct creative VFX identity within the wider Umedia ecosystem, while continuing to serve international film and episodic productions.
