HONG KONG – Pixelbox, a one year old post-production firm in Hong Kong is branching out by backing BoxCG a start-up animation and effects house.

          BoxCG is headed by Cian McLysaght a senior visual effects designer and art-designer previously based in Australia, New York and Europe.

          Company will focus on 3D character animation, 2D Animation, visual effects, title design and branding, though it also has long term ambitions to expand into the feature film sector.

          "We are setting up here because there is so much demand. The China market is so strong, and we can offer the convenience and skills of being based in Hong Kong," McLysaght said. "Hong Kong has a very good supply of animators and effects designers from at least three colleges."

          Pixelbox, co-founded by Chris Thorp, specializes in post-production for the commercials sector with Asia-Pacific clients from China to Australia.
