Bonjour.
Welcome to the Geo-Z website.
I have been working in the animation and VFX industry for more than 15 years. I’ve always been involved with the layout and camera aspect of things filmaking. I have developed techniques for projects at Softimage, Terraglyph, Walt Disney feature Animation, C.O.R.E. Feature Animation and Meteor Studios . I supervised technical directors, artists and developers during those 15 years for all aspect of production (full CG and VFX), but the camera is what I prefer. I know how they work, but believe me, I cannot take a decent photo with a disposable camera (my finger always gets in the way!!! ). Anyway.

For the last few years, I have been involved with stereoscopic productions. I have been consulting for many studios, building their 3D camera rigs and developing tools and techniques to improve their production pipeline. My 3D tools have been used for “Journey to the Center of the Earth”, “Dinosaur: Giants of Patagonia”, “Sea Monsters” and “Dinosaurs Alive”. However, I noticed that I had to redo a lot of the same things over and over again…

Hmmm….

So I thought it would be more productive for my clients and for myself if I came out with the “Ultimate 3D camera rig”, as well as some other tools that would definitely improve productivity.

This is the idea behind Geo-Z: a company specializing in the creation of tools for 3D stereoscopic productions. We are not into content creation. We don’t want to get involved in textures, muscles or rigging. We are only focusing on making YOUR 3D projects as painless as possible.

I think our current tools will definitely make it easier for you, but it doesn’t stop here. This is just the beginning. I have so many ideas and concepts, you can’t even imagine!!!

Stay in touch, and welcome to Geo-Z!
