What NuFrame does

NuFrame d.o.o. is a privately held, Ljubljana-based post and production studio founded in 2007 and operating with an 11-50 headcount band (~15 named team members). It delivers integrated creative production and post-production services spanning commercial film and video production, 3D and 2D animation, character design, motion design, color grading, visual effects, compositing, virtual production, photogrammetry-based rendering, visual development, preproduction (scriptwriting, storyboarding, previsualization), production management (lab services), and film financing support including cash-rebate and co-production coordination.

The studio operates a six-partner ownership structure (Animation Director, Senior Colorist, Creative Director, Technical Director, Animation Technical Director, and Producer/Project Manager) and executes projects end-to-end from concept through final delivery. Its technical capabilities combine traditional CGI/animation/VFX pipelines with on-set LED virtual production and photogrammetry-augmented realistic rendering. The company has no disclosed external funding, no parent entity, and no public listing.

Revenue is generated on a project-based professional services model through direct engagement with brand marketers, advertising agencies, film producers, music labels, and entertainment companies. Clients include Continental, McDonald's, Rimac Automobili, Telekom Slovenije, Outfit7, Argeta, Ljubljanske Mlekarne, NLB, Vzajemna, Triglav, KAWS, Chess Universe, and Dino Merlin. Industry recognition includes a 2022 Cannes Lions award (McDonald's On The Bus), 2022 Slovenian Film Festival recognition, and a 2024 Tribeca Festival selection (Family Therapy). The studio primarily markets through portfolio showcase (Vimeo, Instagram, LinkedIn), paid remarketing, and festival/awards credibility.

Core offering

NuFrame is a Ljubljana-based post and production studio founded in 2007 that delivers integrated creative services spanning video and film production, 3D animation and character design, visual effects (VFX) and compositing, cinematic colour grading, and post-production finishing. The studio works on commercials, feature films, music videos, branded content, and animated series for brand marketers, agencies, producers, music artists, and entertainment companies.

Product overview

NuFrame is a post and production company offering a unified suite of creative services rather than a software product platform. The company provides two primary service areas: Production Services (full commercial production, animation, visual development, preproduction, and financing) and Post-Production Services (colour grading, visual effects, and compositing). These services are delivered through specialized teams including animation, VFX, colour grading, and production management (Lab), all operating as integrated capabilities within a single studio rather than as separate modular products.
