Zoic Studios
Zoic Studios is an effects studio that started up in 2002 between five guys: Loni Peristere, Christopher Jones, Steve Schofield, Andrew Orloff and Tim McBride. The studio started as a small, fifteen employee studio before moving into a larger facility that presently[when?] contains 150 employees.
Their forte is mostly in video games and TV series and commercials (but have done some film work here and there), their first project was a little series called Firefly. Their name is derived from the Greek word of "life" and is meant to connote "evolution". Their website is here.
