Gear Productions

What Gear Productions does

Gear Productions is a privately held digital creation studio founded in 2015 and headquartered under the gear-productions.com domain, with approximately 10 employees operating in a flat, multidisciplinary structure. The studio delivers high-end CGI, VFX, parametric modeling, extended reality (VR/XR), 3D printing, and AI-enhanced design workflows to enterprise clients, with a heavily automotive-skewed customer base that includes Nissan, Renault, Lexus, Toyota, Dacia, Lancia, and multiple Stellantis brands (Citroën, DS Automobiles, Peugeot).

Technically, the studio combines traditional CGI and VFX pipelines with emerging generative-AI tooling. Documented AI modalities span text (LLMs such as ChatGPT/GPT), image, video, and audio generation from natural-language prompts, positioned under a CTO-led "Creative AI Workflows" and "CG Pipeline Engineering" mandate rather than proprietary model development. Parametric design and 3D printing extend the offering from purely digital deliverables into data-driven design generation and physical prototyping.

Commercially, the studio runs a project-based, quote-based B2B engagement model serving OEM marketing and design teams directly, with no publicly disclosed pricing, no recurring SaaS or subscription component, and no external institutional funding documented in the source data. Customer acquisition is driven by portfolio credibility (website and LinkedIn presence of founder-CEO Ilyas Dizdar and founder-CTO Mohamed Oumoumad) and by repeat enterprise mandates across OEM brand portfolios. The company is founder-owned, with no parent company, subsidiaries, M&A activity, or leadership changes reported.
