The bird's the word

“This multi-faceted project allowed me to do one of my favorite things – hire Steven Calcote and his fantastic team at Butcher Bird Studios.”

I am always in awe of the amount of creativity within the walls of Butcher Bird Studios.

From pilot episodes to creative pitches, Butcher Bird always delivers the storytelling I need while seamlessly integrating into all of my creative teams.

It is so exciting to see our talent in the virtual world that players will literally go in and see…It exceeded my expectations to see the world come to life.

I’m blown away with the real-time keying this team accomplished with the Ultimatte 12. They’re achieving a look that would have only been possible on broadcast budgets just a few years ago — and they’re doing it for a livestream workflow.

I’ve hosted many things in my life, but [TikTok Trivia] has to have been the most fun experience.

Let's get up to something
