About us
CandyshopVFX is an independent Production & Post-Production studio based in Athens, Greece , built on craft, speed and creative ownership.
Founded in 2013 by visual effects artist Evangelo Kouloukythas, we grew from a VFX-driven boutique into a studio that can take a project from concept to final delivery.
We develop ideas, plan and produce shoots, and finish with high-end editing, motion design, 2D/3D animation, CGI, VFX compositing, sound design and in-house voice-over.
In 2018 we launched The Division, our advanced effects and CGI department, specializing in fluids, particles,
creatures, environments and character work, for commercials, films and digital media.
Our process is AI-enhanced and artist-led:
we use modern tools to move faster through exploration and approvals, while keeping the final look and storytelling crafted by experienced artists.
With everything centralized under one roof, we deliver tight scheduling, consistent quality control and efficient production.
Our team has a passion for creativity and we’re totally in love with what we do.
Our Services
We are Full-service video production studio, backed by deep post expertise.
We develop ideas, produce shoots and craft the final with editing, CGI/VFX, sound and in-house voice-over.
One partner, every stage.
CREATIVE & DEVELOPMENT
Concepts, scripts, storyboards, animatics and visual direction — built to sell the idea fast and execute efficiently.
AI-ASSISTED PRODUCTION
We use AI tools to accelerate ideation, previs and parts of the post workflow, enabling faster exploration,
quicker approvals and efficient delivery. AI supports the process, while creative direction and final craft remain artist-led.
Typical use cases: rapid concept exploration & style frames, storyboards/animatics & previs,
assisted shot prep (clean-ups/rotoscoping support), and smarter multi-format versioning.

From lean crews with in-house direction to more complex campaigns handled through full production management.
We plan, budget and coordinate shoots with a post-first mindset — capturing exactly what we need to finish beautifully.
POST-PRODUCTION
Editing, finishing and delivery built for tight timelines and multiple versions.
We manage approvals smoothly and deliver broadcast and digital-ready masters with consistency and care.
MOTION DESIGN & ANIMATION
We design and animate brand systems, typography, UI and explainers, creating motion that’s clear,
modern and campaign-consistent across formats and placements.
CGI / 3D
From photoreal product visuals to fully designed environments and simulations.
We build CGI that integrates naturally with live action or stands on its own with strong art direction.

We focus on realism, detail and seamless finishing.
