We Are Augustus Films

Since 2003, Augustus Films has been imagining and building worlds for the visual effects and animation for the feature film, television and advertising industries. Since the inception, we’ve always maintained an artist-centric approach, placing our talented and highly passionate team at the center of everything that we do. Every sequence, every shot and every frame has a story to tell and a message to convey. We involve designers in everything we do to make sure we maintain a level of sophistication and visual continuity to aid and never detract from the message. We feel tremendously fortunate to do what we do with deep rooted curiosity and enthusiasm as we look towards opportunities to learn, to grow and to innovate.

Every sequence, every shot and every frame has a story to tell and message to convey.

The Team

The Augustus Films team is comprised of compositors, designers, filmmakers, storytellers, writers, CG artists, animators, cyclists, wrestlers, ice hockey players and parents. We are open, collaborative and make use of our collective experience both inside the studio as well as out to shape and give meaning to everything we do. We find it isn’t always about the best animator or the best modeler, but more about the RIGHT individual for the task. Our ideal recipe is the perfect balance of talent, passion and willingness to learn from and work in concert with others.
