About One of Us
One of Us was founded in London in 2004 with a clear vision: to build a creative, design-led studio. Our reputation has been earned through creative excellence and close collaborative partnerships with visionary filmmakers. That founding ethos has never changed. It runs through every studio, every project, every collaboration, from intimate indie films to the most ambitious large-scale productions. Following the opening of Paris in 2021, One of Us has continued to expand its global network, with a new studio opened in Bangalore and a presence established in Los Angeles. These moves reflect One of Us’s commitment to international collaboration, talent development, and creative excellence. In July 2024, Basilic Fly Studio invested in One of Us, marking the beginning of a partnership that brings significant mutual benefits. The partnership enables the sharing of resources, fostering greater efficiency and a more agile, scalable VFX offering. While both companies will continue to operate under their own brand identities, this partnership offers new opportunities for growth and development, while building on individual reputations.
