Hybrid 3D and AI

Where 3D and hybrid AI meet.

Some briefs need pure 3D. Some benefit from a layer of AI in the pipeline to handle the unsexy parts. The creative decisions stay with the artists. The heavy lifting moves to the machines. The buyer sees the difference in timeline and budget, not in how the work looks.

Process

From artistry to broadcast.

Each project runs with an artist-director, an art director and a producer from concept to final master.

01

Brief and treatment

A 60-minute scoping call to lock the script, the world and the look. We can start from a reference film, an illustrated mood, a brand system or a blank page. Inside the first week you see thumbnails, a recommended treatment and a creative direction.

02

Design, sculpt and animatic

Look development, character and environment design, sculpt and a timed animatic. You see hand-drawn frames and styleframes before anything goes into 3D, so the creative is locked before the machine fires up.

03

3D, finish and master

Modelling, rigging, lighting, animation, comp, sound design and grade. Broadcast and social masters, with optional asset hand-off if you want the rigs and look-dev for re-use.

What we make

Three flavours of 3D.

Faux stop motion

Faux stop motion & textured CGI

Hero films and worlds with the warmth of practical effects and the flexibility of CGI. Clay surfaces, felt textures, hand-painted props, hand-painted skies, but with the speed and iteration of digital. Used for brand films, commercials and culture work where the audience needs to feel something tactile.

  • Textured, materially-rich modelling
  • Lighting and finish that reads as practical
  • Multi-format masters (16:9, 9:16, 1:1)

Best for

Brand films, culture campaigns, commercials with a tactile look

Most booked, Stylised character 3D

Stylised character 3D

  • Original character design and sculpt
  • Performance animation by artist-directors
  • Cinematic lighting and comp

Who we work for

Built for brand, broadcast and culture teams.

Why Myth for 3D

A 3D studio with a point of view.

01

Craft-led, not template-led

Stylised 3D demands a strong creative voice. Every Myth project starts with the look, the world and the character before any rigging or rendering. The technology serves the story, not the other way around.

02

A 3D look that's actually yours

The creative system we develop sits with your brand, your story and your audience. Look-dev, character system and motion language are built around the project. You can extend them across every campaign after.

03

Broadcast track record

3D animation that has aired on ITV, Sky and major sport. Network specs, broadcast clearance and culture-sector work are routine.

04

Hybrid pipeline where 3D needs it most

3D is slow because of the unsexy bits. Modelling iteration, look-dev, asset generation, roto, cleanup. Our hybrid AI pipeline compresses that work without touching the creative, so a budget that used to cover one direction now covers two or three.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Whatever serves the story and the screen. A lot of our best work mixes a 2D system with hero 3D shots for character or brand moments. We'll recommend the right mix on the intro call. Technique is a creative decision, not a default.

Stylised CGI, faux stop motion, illustrated character work and broadcast-grade motion. We don't do photoreal-everything-everything. Our craft is in matching the look to the audience and the medium.

That's one of our specialisms. Textured surfaces, materially-rich props, lighting that reads as practical, performances that breathe. The result has the warmth of stop motion with the speed and flexibility of CGI.

It depends on scope. A stylised motion piece can ship in a few weeks. A 30 to 60 second character spot or title sequence typically runs longer. A hero brand film with original character work and a hybrid pipeline longer still. We give you a real timeline on the intro call, not a placeholder.

Original character design, sculpt, rig and performance animation are core to what we do. You see hand-drawn character options before we model anything, and the rigs and assets are yours to keep.

The pipeline sits behind the scenes, on the parts of 3D production that benefit from automation. Asset generation, look-dev iteration, roto, cleanup. The creative decisions stay with the artists and the director. You see the difference in timeline and budget, not in how the work looks.

All of it. Script punch-up, professional VO casting, original music and sound design as standard. You don't need to bring a separate writer or sound house unless you want to.

Always. We start from your brand system and extend it into a 3D look and motion language you keep and re-use. For agency clients we work fully white-label to your guidelines, not ours.

3D motion graphics and short-form work generally start in the £15 to £30k range. Stylised 3D character films and brand pieces usually sit £40 to £80k. Hero brand films and broadcast title sequences run £100k+ depending on scope. We'll ballpark a real figure on the 15-minute call, before you commit to anything.
