The eight arms

One animal, eight arms
01

Production analysis

Every project begins with a clear understanding: a creative and technical analysis of the script and the plan, to find the best route to the result.

02

Previs and development

Storyboards, techvis, shooting plan. You know the shape and the cost of the job before anyone rolls camera.

03

Generative AI

Models trained on your assets, and they stay yours. AI native sequences, and hybrid pipelines where AI and CG share the same shot, under the same supervision as our VFX.

04

Virtual production

LED volume and in camera VFX, real time environments, on set supervision.

05

Playback and on set tech

Everything that plays inside the frame: phone screens, computer UIs, broadcast graphics, ready on set or comped in post. Whatever the scene needs, we handle it.

06

Live action

Crew, camera, lighting, grip and water work for film, television and advertising.

07

VFX and CGI

From compositing to full CGI: cleanup, set extension, matte painting, tracking, modelling, lookdev, water and fluid sims, creature and product rendering. Whole shows or one difficult shot.

08

Budgeting and rebate consulting

Budget optimization, incentive and cash rebate modelling, and continuous consulting from development to the final craft. The right person at the table.

Canary Islands audiovisual incentive

The Canary Islands run the strongest audiovisual incentive in Europe, and polpo is built inside it. The rebate is not a form we fill at the end: it is the ground the studio stands on, and we plan your budget around it from day one.

Studio

Canary Islands, España

An octopus has eight arms and one brain that runs all of them at once. It is the most honest description of how this studio works.

Polpo exists to remove the most expensive problem in this industry: the handover. Analysis, previs, shoot, virtual production, VFX and AI sit in one building and talk to each other from the first day of prep, so nothing is lost between vendors and nothing is discovered too late.

We work on features, series and advertising, either across the whole pipeline or on a single department. If you only need one arm for one week, that is a perfectly good way to work with us.

Talk to a supervisor.

Before the numbers, the questions.

Tell us what the project needs. We’ll tell you how we’d get there.
