The trick to staying up-to-date on all of the latest VFX trends is to find the right people to follow. The content you consume will reflect in your work and if you are watching the best VFX artists’ work chances are your work will slowly start to look the same. 

In the following post we’ll take a look at 6 of our favorite channels for VFX inspiration.

1. Framestore

When it comes to amazing VFX work, there’s few studios in the world as innovative as Framestore. Framestore works on projects ranging from Hollywood features to 15-second commercials, yet all of their work is completely mind-blowing. 

Their Vimeo channel is the perfect place to see their latest work and find some sweet mograph inspiration. This spot created for Converse showcases Framestores commitment to creating stunning 3D and particle work.

2. ​Method

THE AVENGERS - Main On End from Method Studios on Vimeo.

Inline with Framestore, Method is another wonderful channel for VFX inspiration. Method is often tasked with creating shots for Marvel so you know they have to be good. Their channel is full of their work from over the years. 

Even their old stuff can humble the best VFX artists out there. In case you didn’t see it here are the beautiful titles they created for the first Avengers movie.

3. ​Greyscalegorilla

Greyscalegorilla inspires VFX artist by showing them how to create stunning works of art. With their collection of dozens of tutorials it would take you weeks to watch all of the content and even more to master. 

But the thing I really like about Greyscalegorilla is their commitment to creating amazing things. All of their tutorials show you how to create something awesome. 

Here’s a fun tutorial they put together about how to create a wacky waving inflatable tube man.

4.​ Atomic Fiction

Atomic Fiction is one of the trendiest VFX houses in Hollywood right now. Their work has received many awards over the last few years and they happily share VFX breakdowns on their Vimeo channel. 

One of their more interesting breakdowns on their channel is the Deadpool breakdown where they show how they created the cityscape.

5. ​Makevision

Makevision’s massive VFX work can be seen on their stunning Vimeo channel. From car commercials to epic blockbusters they create stunning VFX work that will definitely get your creative juices flowing.
