AI & Technology
AI where it helps. Artists where it matters.
HKG treats AI as pipeline support inside a supervised VFX process — not as a replacement for creative judgement.
AI is a capability, not a shortcut
AI-assisted material enters the same pipeline as everything else: it is reviewed, art-directed, integrated and finished. Nothing reaches a client because a model produced it quickly.
Where it earns its place
AI is most useful where iteration is expensive and judgement is cheap — clearing a plate, roughing in a mask, testing a previz option. It is least useful where the answer requires taste, and that is where a supervisor still sits.
Credible claims only
HKG presents what it has actually delivered. Capability that is still in research is described as research.
Core areas
Where AI actually helps.
-
01
AI-assisted roto & clean-up
AI accelerates the slow, repetitive steps — masking, edge work, paint — without changing who is responsible for the result.
-
02
Faster previz iterations
AI-assisted previs shortens the loop between an idea and a decision, so more options get tested before a day of unit time is spent.
-
03
Supervisor review, every time
Every AI-assisted shot is reviewed by a supervisor to the same studio QC standard as photographed work — no exceptions.
