Factory & process animation

Production lines, machines and entire plants — animated clearly enough for a buyer, an investor or a new hire to understand in a minute.

A factory is hard to film and harder to explain: the interesting part happens inside a machine, across a building, or in a plant that isn't built yet. We build the whole operation in 3D and animate it in Unreal Engine 5 — from the site and the building down to a single station on the line.

Process animation

Step-by-step sequences of how a product is made, with cutaways inside machines.

Plant & site films

New and expanding facilities shown in their real location, from the air to the line.

Product & machine

Equipment animated in operation for sales teams, distributors and trade shows.

Interactive & VR

Real-time walkthroughs, configurators and training apps built in Unreal Engine 5.

Industrial work in Unreal Engine 5 — production lines and facilities.

Where factory animation is used

Sales presentations that show a machine or a line working without shipping it to the customer; investor and board decks for a new plant or expansion; state, city and community meetings about a planned facility; recruiting videos that show new hires the place they'll work; trade-show screens; and onboarding or safety training that explains a process before anyone steps onto the floor.

What we need from you

CAD or BIM models if you have them (STEP, IGES, Revit, SolidWorks exports and similar), layout drawings, photos or video of the existing equipment, and the story you want to tell. If there's no model yet, we can work from drawings and references. NDAs are standard — we sign yours before receiving any files.

How a project runs

We agree the storyboard and the shot list first, then build and light the 3D scene, show you draft frames, animate, and deliver the final film in the formats you need — 16:9 for presentations, vertical cuts for social, looped versions for booth screens. Every project starts with a fixed quote and a schedule agreed before work begins.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can you animate a plant that hasn't been built yet?

Yes. We build the facility from your drawings or BIM model and place it in its real location using Google's photoreal 3D map of the site, so the film shows the plant exactly where it will stand.

Do you work under NDA?

Yes. Industrial projects usually involve confidential equipment and processes; we sign your NDA before receiving files and keep all project data private.

Which file formats can you use?

Most CAD and BIM exports work — STEP, IGES, OBJ, FBX, Revit, SolidWorks and similar. We optimize heavy engineering models for animation ourselves.

How long does a factory animation take?

It depends on length and detail; animation takes longer than still images. You get a clear schedule together with the quote, agreed before we start.

Can the same model be used for VR or an interactive app?

Yes. Because we work in Unreal Engine 5, the same scene can become a real-time walkthrough, a VR training module or an interactive kiosk.
