M. NesvadeLine Producer · Google ReviewQuestions from San Diego teams
Do you work with companies in San Diego?
Yes. Pixeldust works with San Diego and Southern California teams remotely, with clear review points at every stage, and we travel for shoots when a story needs to be filmed on location. Our studios are in Washington D.C., Orlando, Madrid and Monterrey.
Can you animate a mechanism of action or a medical device?
Yes. Our 3D team works from your science and your CAD files to show what happens inside the body or inside the device, accurately and clearly, with your experts reviewing every stage.
How much does a video cost?
It depends on the complexity of the project, but you may be surprised: it’s often less expensive and less complicated than people expect. Tell us what you need and we’ll provide a clear quote.
How long does a project take?
Timelines depend on scope. Once we understand the project, we’ll give you a clear schedule with review points at every stage, and we can move quickly when a launch date is fixed.
