Sony is closing Pixomondo just four years after the company was acquired in 2022 with an emphasis on LED volume production and real-time workflows. The Oscar-winning studio, which received the award for *Hugo* and multiple Emmy Awards for *Game of Thrones*, is being phased out as ongoing projects are completed, with parts of the work being integrated into Sony Pictures Imageworks as part of a broader consolidation strategy. The closure affects employees at international locations in North America and Europe and reflects the continuing trend of major studios bringing VFX work in-house rather than engaging external parties.
