Good questions
Can you run a whole production, not just the VFX?
Yes. We cover development, financing, physical production, VFX and post. Engage us for one stage or the whole project.
Which tax incentives can my production access?
Depending on where the work happens: the Italian tax credit and regional funds such as Piedmont, the UK expenditure credit and the Australian PDV Offset. We map the options at budget stage.
Can work be split between Italy, Australia and the UK?
That is how we work. One pipeline and one point of contact, with shots moving between time zones so work continues around the clock.
Is your pipeline secure for studio content?
Alps Studios holds a TPN+ Gold shield assessment, the content security standard used by major studios and streamers.
