We give
ideas wings.

CopyCat is a Chennai studio for VFX and animation, games and web, and digital marketing, with an institute that trains the artists who make them.

Scroll

The only thing we copy is the idea in your head. One team turns it into films, games, websites and campaigns that look exactly the way you pictured them.

One brief. One team.

Most projects need more than one skill. Ours sit under one roof, so nothing gets lost between vendors.

  • One person to call

    Artists, developers and marketers work on the same brief and timeline.

  • Made in-house

    Nothing is outsourced. What you approve is what we make.

  • Taught by people who do the work

    Our institute's mentors are the artists delivering our client projects.

Four crafts under one roof.

Hire one team or several for the same brief. All four work from the same studio.

VFX & Animation

Storyboard to final render, in one building.

Ad films, explainers, 3D and visual effects for brands, broadcasters and filmmakers. Concept, 3D, compositing and edit, all in-house.

The problem

Most brands juggle a director, a 3D studio and an editor, and lose weeks in the hand-offs.

How we do it

One pipeline under one roof. You brief one team and get one timeline, from the first frame to the final cut.

What we make

  • Ad films & commercialsSpots for TV, YouTube and Instagram, from script to final cut.
  • 3D animationCharacters, products and walkthroughs, modelled and animated.
  • VFX & compositingClean-ups, set extensions and effects for film and OTT.
  • Motion graphicsLogos, titles and social cut-downs that move.
  • Explainer videosA complex product, explained in 60 to 90 seconds.

Institute

Studios hire showreels, not certificates.

Career courses in VFX, 3D animation and motion graphics at the CopyCat VFX & Animation Institute. Small batches, industry software, real feedback.

The problem

Most courses end with a certificate and tutorial exercises, so students graduate without work a studio wants to see.

How we do it

You learn next door to a working studio. Your showreel is built on real briefs and reviewed by the artists who deliver our client work.

Courses

Fees and batch dates on the call.

Games & Web

Games and websites, drawn and coded in the same room.

Mobile and PC games, websites and web apps, designed and built by one team from first sketch to launch.

The problem

With separate designers and developers, the game or site you approved is rarely the one that ships.

How we do it

Art and code in the same room. Our animators and developers build side by side, so what's designed is what ships.

What we build

  • Mobile gamesCasual and mid-core games for Android and iOS.
  • PC games & prototypesUnity and Unreal builds, from pitch demo to release.
  • WebsitesFast, search-ready sites your team can update.
  • Web appsDashboards, portals and booking tools.
  • UI & UX designScreens people understand the first time they use them.

Digital Marketing

Campaigns made by our own animators, tracked to the lead.

SEO, social media, performance ads and content for businesses in Chennai, across India and abroad.

The problem

Agencies that run ads rarely make the creatives, so campaigns wait on another vendor and end up looking generic.

How we do it

We make the content we market. Our animation team produces your creatives, so campaigns launch faster and look sharper.

What we run

  • SEO & AI searchGet found on Google and in AI answers.
  • Social mediaContent calendars, posts and reels, managed every month.
  • Performance adsGoogle and Meta campaigns, tracked to every lead.
  • Content productionShoots, edits and motion, made in-house.
  • ReportingOne monthly report in plain language.
