PreviewAR - Film & TV Toolkit

Trusted on The Last of Us, Foundation & Jurassic World. NEW: Image Anchors lock scenes to a printed marker, plus ultra-wide framing beyond your camera's lens.

Trusted by The Last of Us, Foundation, Jurassic World and many more, PreviewAR accelerates previsualization on your next show.

Made for independent studios and used by world-renowned production companies, PreviewAR is the easiest way to view your 3D characters and objects in the real world using technology you already have. Use it for accurate location scouts or to test animated pre-viz in pre-production, or on the day to check set extensions, animated characters and realistic scene previews you can share with clients, cast and crew.

PreviewAR supports most major 3D file formats (including OBJ, USDZ, USD, DAE and FBX) or drop in 2D image cards to block out set extensions and reference frames. Download now and see your animated, textured characters and objects live on set.

"PreviewAR provides a wonderful shortcut to viewing a 3D asset and sharing that experience with others in the room, without need for a headset. Its application on a sound stage is quite amazing - it's allowed us to quickly see a potential set build without harming the budget." Art Director, Painting Practice

IMMERSIVE & ACCURATE PreviewAR uses real-world scale to show your models as accurately as possible. With people and environment occlusion, your models are deeply incorporated into the scene, and the full-screen AR display means your set can come alive right before your eyes. Simulate a lens wider than your device's camera and your 3D scene now extends beyond the live feed for true ultra-wide framing.

CLEAN & INTUITIVE The on-screen controls let you adjust every aspect of the scene without getting in the way. Change lighting angles, scale models, set a model's origin point for precise pivots, and fine-tune positions with the Adjustment Wheel. Live on-screen readouts show focal length, camera tilt, height, frame rate and aspect ratio as you move. The interface can be hidden entirely for a completely immersive experience by tapping any empty area of the scene.

SECURE & PRIVATE There are no external servers or processing involved with PreviewAR, every model you import stays on your device and isn't uploaded or downloaded anywhere else. Perfect for NDA-restricted or sensitive assets that can't be uploaded to other cloud-based products.

PreviewAR offers a Pro subscription for advanced features tailor-made for those on-set, including:

• Camera & Lens Simulation: Choose from 500+ cinema camera formats with spherical & anamorphic lens options, or add your own custom setup.
