What is VFX outsourcing?

VFX outsourcing means contracting a specialist studio — like Lucid Nepal — to handle visual effects work remotely. Studios outsource tasks such as rotoscoping, paint/cleanup, matchmove, and compositing to reduce costs, access specialised talent, and scale production capacity without hiring permanently.

Why outsource rotoscoping to Lucid Nepal?

Lucid Nepal has specialised in rotoscoping outsourcing since 2011. Our artists deliver VFX roto, stereo roto, and green/blue screen keying at Hollywood QC standards. Competitive pricing, fast turnarounds, and consistent quality make us a preferred roto outsource partner for feature films, TV series, and commercials.

What paint and cleanup services does Lucid Nepal offer?

Lucid Nepal offers comprehensive paint and cleanup outsourcing including wire removal, rig removal, reflection removal, crew and object removal, dust and scratch removal, and beauty fixes such as digital makeup, wrinkle cleanup, and tattoo removal — all delivered frame-accurately at theatrical quality.

Can Lucid Nepal handle matchmove outsourcing for large productions?

Yes. Lucid Nepal provides professional matchmove outsourcing including 2D tracking, 3D camera tracking, object tracking, and deformation tracking. Our scalable pipeline handles high shot counts for feature films and episodic streaming productions.

How does Lucid Nepal integrate with existing VFX pipelines?

Lucid Nepal operates as a remote VFX pipeline partner, integrating with your existing tools and workflows. We support ACES-compliant colour pipelines, secure encrypted file delivery, and cross-timezone collaboration. Our team adapts to your naming conventions, software preferences, and delivery formats.

What makes Lucid Nepal different from other VFX outsourcing companies?

Lucid Nepal combines 13+ years of VFX outsourcing experience, European QC standards, Hollywood production credits, and the cost advantage of Kathmandu-based operations. We are a full-time studio with long-term artists — not a freelance marketplace — ensuring consistent quality and institutional knowledge on every project.

How much does VFX outsourcing cost at Lucid Nepal?

Pricing depends on shot complexity, volume, turnaround time, and service type. Lucid Nepal offers competitive rates significantly below US and UK market rates while maintaining Hollywood-quality output. Contact us with your shot list and we will provide a detailed quote within 24 hours.

What software does Lucid Nepal use for VFX outsourcing?

Lucid Nepal uses industry-standard VFX software for compositing, rotoscoping, paint, matchmove, camera tracking, 3D work, and motion graphics. We adapt to your pipeline and deliver in any format your workflow requires.

Is my footage secure when outsourcing VFX to Lucid Nepal?

Yes. Lucid Nepal uses NDA-protected secure file transfer protocols and encrypted delivery for all client materials. We treat all footage as strictly confidential and operate under full non-disclosure agreements on every project.

Where is Lucid Nepal located?

Lucid Nepal is based in Kathmandu, Nepal, and serves VFX studios and production companies worldwide since 2011. Our time zone provides productive overlap with both European and North American business hours, enabling efficient cross-timezone remote VFX collaboration.

What is 3D & 2D Animation Outsourcing?

Animation outsourcing covers the creation of computer-generated characters, objects, and environments that are composited into live-action footage or used as standalone animated content. 3D animation involves modelling geometry, building rigs for animation control, texturing and shading surfaces, lighting the scene, and finally rendering and compositing the elements into the production. 2D animation includes motion graphics, title sequences, animated infographics, and hand-drawn or digitally-animated visual effects overlays.

Why Outsource 3D to Lucid Nepal?

Animation is highly specialised, requiring different skill sets at each stage of the pipeline. Outsourcing animation work to Lucid Nepal lets you access the right artists for each phase — modellers, riggers, lighters, and animators — at a fraction of the cost of maintaining a full in-house CG department.
