The Look, a premier picture post-production facility in London has successfully integrated SGO's Mistika Workflows into their production environment, significantly enhancing the efficiency and productivity of their VFX pipeline.

By leveraging Mistika Workflows' advanced automation capabilities, The Look has significantly reduced manual interventions, allowing them to deliver top-tier VFX projects under the tightest of deadlines, while maintaining an exceptional standard of quality.

Highly Customised Automation The integration of a fully customised Mistika Workflows solution has enabled The Look to completely automate the creation and management of VFX pulls, providing a substantial competitive edge in a highly demanding post-production industry.

We have been very impressed by the flexibility of Mistika Workflows, shared Thomas Urbye, CEO of The Look. SGO has created a solution that serves as a sandbox for companies like ours, enabling us to discover tailored solutions for our specific needs. Initially, we approached SGO to help us develop a customized version of Mistika Workflows to address a challenge we faced automating the transcoding of camera RAW rushes into EXR, while preserving all the essential metadata for various VFX vendors.

Streamlined Operations Through close collaboration with SGO, The Look achieved a significant breakthrough in workflow automation. The editorial teams they partner with can now deliver their own EDLs to a designated watch-folder within Mistika Workflows. From there, EXR files are automatically created and seamlessly shared with the respective VFX vendors, eliminating the need for manual processing and significantly increasing operational efficiency across multiple projects.

Mistika Workflows has been a game changer for us, continues Urbye. We are currently exploring further automation possibilities, including conforms and deliverables, leveraging our in-house Python expertise alongside the bespoke custom development offered by SGO.

Robust software with customized enhancements have proven to be the perfect combination, shared Geoff Mills, Managing Director at SGO. Mistika Workflows empowers our clients to fully leverage its capabilities while tailoring solutions to their specific operational needs. This partnership with The Look is a great example of how advanced automation can revolutionize a VFX pipeline, driving both efficiency and innovation in a highly competitive industry.
