COMING WHEN IT’S READY.

Verðandi (Old Norse, meaning possibly "happening" or "present") is an upcoming animated short film created in Unreal Engine 5. Originally conceived as a tech R&D project, it quickly grew into a more meaningful narrative inspired by Nordic mythology and history. Our goal is to leverage AAA cinematic experience to push real-time rendering to its limits achieving near pre-rendered quality with a fraction of the resources. The film is currently in production.

If you’re looking to push your project visually, let’s talk. I’d love to help craft worlds and stories that hit with impact.
