Frantic's Software Division delivers innovative, custom R&D solutions and quality software products through a truly international team of visual effects and programming experts. Working closely with Frantic's VFX Division, our software team is meeting the challenges of the industry on a daily basis.

Turning to real science as a foundation, our in-house R&D team seeks to push the boundaries of visual effects. We're tackling complex production problems and physics issues with inventive programming solutions. The end results have produced advanced imagery for many of Frantic's feature film projects.

Building on this work, the Software Division has created several proprietary software tools: the high-volume particle renderer Krakatoa; the Flood Fluid Simulator; Flood: Surf for realistic ocean surfaces; the Deadline Render Farm Management System; and Amaretto, the 3ds Max interface for the NVIDIA Gelato renderer. Created with the daily demands of industry professionals in mind, these tools have all been proven in the field.

Whether it's for films, television, commercial campaigns or the industry-at-large, we're hard at work, in search of that next VFX breakthrough.
