Harbor's VFX Pulls Management Solution
More time to focus on your creative vision.
Available to all productions as an independent service, Anchor maintains full content security measures and allows all stakeholders – Editorial, DI, VFX vendors, and marketing teams – 24/7 secure access to all work-in-progress and final files, with the ability to upload and send pulls between production teams and vendors.
Anchor streamlines postproduction workflows, avoiding duplicating admin and communication. Anchor’s end goal is making life simpler for all production departments, empowering creatives to focus on their craft, without the headaches of manual QC, excessive upload & download times, or the need for physical storage and shipping.
At Harbor, we’ve removed all assumptions and are pioneering workflow and software advancements to continue simplifying process-based tasks.
We’ve taken this to the next level with Anchor by progressing the platform in partnership with your studio technology teams, manufacturers, and leading software engineers, pushing Anchor technology to suit film production not just for today, but also tomorrow.
