Case Study: HaZFilm accelerates virtual production and collaboration with Perforce P4 on AWS

HaZFilm scales virtual production with Perforce P4 on AWS and delivers 2 feature films

HaZFilm, a growing virtual production microstudio, transitioned from live-action to animation and game development, creating projects in Unreal Engine. Their challenge was managing a remote, global team and the large, iterative digital assets for simultaneous projects without a dedicated technical team. They needed a robust source control system to replace inadequate solutions like Google Drive, which caused file corruption and versioning issues. They turned to Perforce for its P4 version control.

The solution was deploying Perforce P4 on AWS, which provided scalable, secure source control that integrated seamlessly with Unreal Engine. This allowed the team to easily track changes, revert to previous versions, and collaborate effectively without a complex setup. The results were transformative; HaZFilm gained the ability to manage massive files, accelerate workflows, and empower artistic experimentation. This solid foundation enabled them to scale the business, confidently taking on ambitious projects like an animated feature film and a video game developed in parallel.
