About Ælvis.

Ælvis is a complete cinematic production environment for feature films, episodic, commercials and special projects, from script through final master. Filmmakers and their collaborators build worlds, cast characters, design sets and define the visual language; stage, direct and create every shot; and move through editorial, sound and color within one unified system. It can also be used to develop worlds and places intended for physical realization.

At its core is a structured record of every approved character, environment, look, performance and creative decision. This preserves continuity and authored intent from development through the final frame.

Ælvis supports studio-standard finishing through an ACES color-managed workflow.

Studios, production companies, producers, directors and studio executives making feature films, episodic, commercials and special projects. Ælvis is deployed by arrangement, for a single production, a full slate, or across a studio.

Clients choose how much of it to use: a single phase, several, or the entire pipeline. Across all of it, Ælvis carries the production from development to the final master, and on to the distribution team. In development: the script breakdown, the world of the film and its look. In pre-production: cast, sets and locations, designed and approved once, then held in every shot. In production: every shot planned, staged and directed. In post-production: editorial, color, sound, compositing and finishing, through to the master. After the master, for the distribution team: festival and market strategy, studio outreach, foreign sales, theatrical, distribution outlets, finance, press and marketing, all kept with the same record of the production. Alongside all of it: schedules, breakdowns, set documents and the paper trail.

The filmmakers. Filmmakers decide; Ælvis executes. Continuity, approvals and consent are carried across every stage, so each decision is recorded and held from the first draft to the final frame.

Yes. Performances filmed on a reference stage can be placed in the finished location, and sets are designed and drawn, built as models, and every shot is designed on them. The Frames page shows examples from Christmas in New England, made for Warner Music Group.
