VFX Industry Outlook: A Statement by the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors expresses optimism regarding the future of the VFX industry in fiscal year 2023-24, highlighting several significant factors driving its robust growth:

1. Surging Demand:

• Across various sectors including film, television, advertising, gaming, and virtual reality, the demand for high-quality visual effects continues to rise steadily.

• Evolving content consumption patterns necessitate captivating visuals, propelling the VFX industry forward.

2. Technological Leapfrogs:

• Advancements in computer graphics, rendering capabilities, and real-time VFX solutions are revolutionizing VFX production.

• These innovations empower studios to create immersive and realistic visual experiences, attracting new clients and market opportunities.

3. Streaming Powerhouse:

• The rapid expansion of streaming platforms

has revolutionized the entertainment industry, leading to a significant increase in the production of original content. This surge in content creation has, in turn, driven an unprecedented demand for VFX services, as streaming platforms strive to captivate audiences with visually stunning and immersive experiences.

• Streaming giants like Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney , and others are investing heavily in high-budget productions that often rely on extensive visual effects to bring complex narratives and fantastical worlds to life. This investment not only fuels the growth of the VFX industry but also pushes the boundaries of what is technically and creatively possible.

• The continuous release of new series and films on these platforms creates a steady stream of opportunities for VFX studios, ensuring a consistent demand for their expertise. As streaming services continue to expand globally, the VFX industry is poised to grow alongside them, benefiting from the evolving content landscape.

4. Globalized Landscape:

• The VFX industry is becoming more interconnected as studios across the globe collaborate on international projects. This crossborder collaboration allows for the sharing of expertise, technology, and creative resources, enhancing the quality and efficiency of VFX production.

• This globalization opens up new markets and enables VFX companies to broaden their client base by tapping into emerging economies with rapidly growing entertainment industries. As a result, VFX studios can gain access to diverse projects and opportunities, fostering growth and innovation within the industry.

• Additionally, the globalized nature of the VFX industry helps companies mitigate risks by diversifying their revenue streams across different regions and markets, making them more resilient to economic fluctuations in any single area.

5. Remote Revolution:

• The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the transition to remote work, fundamentally changing the VFX industry's workforce dynamics.

• The adoption of remote collaboration tools and cloud-based workflows has enabled VFX artists to work from virtually anywhere. This shift has not only broadened talent acquisition by allowing studios to tap into a global pool of skilled professionals but also streamlined project management, facilitating seamless collaboration across different geographical locations.

While the outlook is promising, the industry faces challenges such as intense competition, tight production schedules, and margin pressures. Additionally, rising production costs and talent shortages in specialized areas may pose hurdles for some VFX studios.

The Board emphasizes confidence in our company's ability to navigate these challenges by remaining agile, embracing technological advancements, and adapting to the evolving market landscape. We are well-positioned to capitalize on the numerous opportunities within the VFX industry in fiscal year 2023-24.
