Based in UK, The Foundry is a leading developer of visual effects and image processing technologies that boost productivity and workflow in film and video post production.

The company was established in 1996 by Bruno Nicoletti and Simon Robinson, both intimate with high-end post production facilities across the globe, and together they produced the Tinder plug-ins for Discreet’s® Flame® systems – the first set of such plug-ins to be commercially available. The Foundry has grown considerably since its early days; the company now successfully licenses its sophisticated image processing technology to third parties, holds a portfolio comprising two Academy Award® winning products including high-end compositing application Nuke and operates offices in London and LA. The Foundry’s innovative products are renowned worldwide and support a wide range of host platforms including After Effects, Autodesk® Media and Entertainment Systems, Avid DS, Baselight, Film Master, Fusion, Nuke, Scratch and Shake.

In addition to product development The Foundry has used its considerable influence to drive the development of an open standard for visual effects plug-ins known as OpenFX. OpenFX is gaining wide acceptance by host and plug-in developers, such as Autodesk®, Assimilate, Digital Vision, FilmLight, Grass Valley, Soluciones Graficas por Ordenador (S.G.O.), Photron and others.

The Foundry 是為影視界後製的視覺效果和影像處理提升生產效果和促進工作程序的技術研發之領導先驅。本公司是在 1996 年由 Bruno Nicoletti 和 Simon Robinson 所成立。此二人與全球的高階後製公司有密切的關係，就一起為 Discreet 的 Flame 系統製作了 Tinder 插件軟體，成為第一套這類插件的商業產品。此後 The Foundry 翼展蓬勃，如今我們成功的將處理影像的尖端技術授權給第三者，並擁有兩項 Academy Award 頒獎的產品（包括高階合成軟體 Nuke），並在倫敦和洛杉磯設有辦公室。The Foundry 的創新產品擁有世界口碑，並支援範圍寬廣的平台，例如 After Effects, Autodesk® Media and Entertainment Systems, Avid DS, Baselight, Film Master, Fusion, Nuke, Scratch 和 Shake。

在產品研發之外，The Foundry 還用它相當的影響力來促進一個視覺效果插件的開放式規格，叫做 OpenFX ，的發展。OpenFX 逐漸得到業界，如 Autodesk®, Assimilate, Digital Vision, FilmLight, Grass Valley, Soluciones Graficas por Ordenador (S.G.O.), Photron 等的廣泛認同。
