Productions come to Lemon Sky for finished sequences: AAA-quality game cinematics, CGI trailers and 3D animation for series and long-form projects, delivered from previsualization through final render with VFX and compositing handled in the same pipeline. For the full picture of how an engagement runs, read our complete guide to animation and cinematics outsourcing.
What kinds of cinematics does Lemon Sky produce?
Game cinematics in both pre-rendered and real-time form: story cutscenes, announcement trailers, launch trailers and in-game sequences. We work to the project's engine and art direction, so a real-time cinematic built in Unreal matches the gameplay around it, and a pre-rendered piece holds its own as a standalone film.
A production can hand us any starting point: a finished script and boards, a rough animatic, or a one-page brief and a style reference. The earlier we join, the more of the previsualization and design load we can carry; the later we join, the tighter we match what already exists. Style range runs from stylized to realistic, set by the project rather than a house look.
Does Lemon Sky produce animated series?
Yes. We deliver CGI and 3D animation for TV series and long-form projects, handling episodic production at a consistent quality bar across a season. Layout, animation, lighting and compositing run through one pipeline under a single production team, which keeps episode quality steady while schedules compress.
An episodic engagement can begin with a pipeline test: one sequence carried through every stage, reviewed at each gate, priced and scheduled like the episodes that follow. It gives both sides real numbers before a season-length commitment.
How does the animation pipeline work?
Every project moves through previsualization, layout, animation, lighting, VFX and compositing, with client review gates at each stage. The toolset is standard across the industry: Maya and Houdini in production, Nuke in compositing, Unreal for real-time work. Reviews run on your schedule, and a Kuala Lumpur production day overlapping European mornings keeps turnaround inside one working day.
Who has this team worked with?
Lemon Sky's 150 specialists have contributed to 180 shipped titles across 20+ years in production, with credits including Final Fantasy VII Remake, Marvel's Spider-Man, Gears of War 5 and Warcraft III Reforged.
