Anihaus and Motion Media Find A Creative Solution To Concept Designs With Great Speed And Accuracy

Anihaus and Motion Media Find A Creative Solution To Concept Designs With Great Speed And Accuracy

Customer challenge

Anihaus is the company of Andrew Leung, a well-known concept designer, and artist in Hollywood. Having worked on such films as Black Panther, Spiderman Homecoming and Captain America they needed a set of software tools that could create massive environments quickly. Anihaus reached out to Motion Media to find a solution.

Project goals

Anihaus had 2 goals in mind: 1. Identify the best software to design large environments with the capability of real-time rendering and efficient modeling 2. Find one source to procure all software needs including Autodesk and other required plugins or adjacent products

Solution

After talking with Anihaus, Motion Media determined that a combination of Autodesk Maya and Fusion 360 along with other plugins and Unreal Engine would work nicely with their setup and goals. A combination of these products was implemented, allowing Anihaus to quickly iterate designs as well as see them in real-time.

Business outcome

Anihaus increased the speed at which they were able to design by combining Autodesk Maya and Fusion 360 along with Unreal Engine. This combination of software allowed them to concept out designs with great speed and accuracy and to iterate those designs fast enough for the fast-paced film industry. Maya specifically has a deep set of modeling tools that gave them a breadth of options while, with Fusion 360, they are able to boolean their large environments and keep the file sizes manageable.

Conclusion

With their Autodesk pipeline, Anihaus is able to iterate faster, concept easier, and deliver easily. The modeling capabilities within Maya, accompanied by Fusion 360, have allowed Anihaus the freedom to create without worrying about the tools to do so. They are creating even more concepts and designs in less time than ever before, thanks to Autodesk and Unreal Engine.
