Established in 1994, the studio has grown from a small attic with a few people, to a company with over 80 employees from all over the world, picking up a shelf full of Amandas, a Thea award, and many more along our journey!

At Qvisten we award and value both creativity, new technology and innovation. We use many different techniques at our studio, and we are always open to trying out new things - 3D, 2D, Unreel, Stop-Motion, AR, VR and different combination techniques. We make content for all platforms.
