One ecosystem.
Script to final review.

Closely connected, modular tools for the hybrid VFX and AI workflow. Each one speeds the work up and stops the mistake before the next department finds it, and leaves the artist free to work their way.

Stage by stage, nothing retyped.

Each stage hands structured data to the next, not a spreadsheet or an email. The magenta marker shows where PXLnexus acts; the tools do the work and keep the record.

PLAN

The script becomes a breakdown, a bid and a schedule, and the models it calls for land in the library.

MAKE

Every application connects through PXLconnect. Pick from the library, set up the same way every time, check, and carry the work between apps.

The full pipeline behind Thresholds

PXLsuite started as a few fixes for Thresholds, the CG series I co-created and am currently supervising. A bid that took weeks in Excel. A naming convention nobody could remember. Notes scattered between email and dailies. Each fix solved one problem, and each one needed the one before it.

That’s how it grew into a pipeline rather than a toolbox. It supports a complex hybrid VFX and AI production, and the deeper that pipeline goes, the more tools I build under it to speed it up and automate it. Every piece is hardened on a real show, in production now.

The partner tools sit at the stages where they take out a whole step. XGRIDS captures the locations and Volinga brings the splats into Unreal, relit. 3D.sk scans and Faceform Wrap give us the digital humans. The Reallusion suite builds, rigs and animates the characters. Dash builds the worlds in Unreal. Lightcraft’s Jetset puts the director’s camera on his phone, and Jetset Sync and Bridge bring each take back into Maya.

Each one is tested on Thresholds, in production, not in a demo. The work they produce lands in the same folders, under the same names, and is tracked in PXLflow with everything else.
