Scanline was founded in 1989. Since that time Scanline has become a leader of Visual Effects for film and television movies within Germany. With our sister company Scan&Record35, we offer full film services for "digital lab", including scanning, grading and film recording. From the beginning, Scanline has specialized in internal software development to become competitive in the international world of visual effects. The inhouse software is continuously optimized and developed to adapt to production challenges. This enables Scanline to react quickly to every challenge a project presents. The combination of Scanline's artistry and technology earned us worldwide recognition. Our photorealistic scenes for a dam breaking sequence and a airplane crash, competed with the most prestigious American visual effects companies at the international Siggraph's visual effects awards.
