Pinpoint FX is a CGI and VFX studio, founded in 2025. We do photorealistic product advertising for brands like Dryrobe and Klira and quirky VFX artists like Eivør, as well as our own short films.
Charlotte Foster: Charlotte has had a lifetime of loving art, and taught herself 3D before taking a masters course in VFX. One of her earliest experiences in the world of CG was coming to Siggraph Bring Your Own Animation events in 2024! In 2025 she co-founded Pinpoint FX and is now its Creative Director.
Bhavya Sareen: Coming from a background of film, Bhavya loves storytelling and is a talented cinematographer. Transitioning these skills into 3D, he studied a VFX masters and spent some time further honing his craft before joining Pinpoint FX as an FX artist and generalist (and getting his camera out whenever he can!).
