What we do
Big-studio thinking.
Small-studio attention.
Pushing Pixels is the independent studio of motion designer Paul Hupfield. After a 15-year career in London television, Paul built a remote studio in Cornwall, working remotely for production companies worldwide, who need sharp ideas, practical delivery and a dependable creative partner.
Documentary work is a particular strength. We are experienced in handling sensitive archive material with care—preserving, restoring and enhancing it without compromising the integrity of the original.
Long-standing collaborators include BBC Studios, Talkback, Remedy, Zig Zag, Megalomedia, Hello Mary, Vaudeville, Lime Pictures, North Ridge Films, Baby Wolf Productions, Flashing Lights Media, Rangabee, Lion TV and many more.
We also design, build and deploy web and mobile applications: playful public-facing experiences, practical private tools, Android products and learning platforms that work cleanly across phones, tablets and desktops.

AI Workflows & Finishing
AI Glitch &
Artifact Repair.
At our core, Pushing Pixels is a conventional motion graphics and CGI studio built on industry-standard tools like After Effects, Cinema 4D, and precision compositing. But we actively embrace what AI brings to the creative party—combining traditional craft with generative speed to fix inconsistent renders, repair glitchy footage, and turn rough AI drafts into broadcast-ready masters.
CLEANUP & FIXES01
Fixing AI Glitches
Got flickering backgrounds, warped geometry, jittery artifacts, or stubborn unwanted elements that prompts won't remove? We step in with traditional rotoscoping, clean-plating, inpainting, and temporal stabilization to rescue your footage.
COLLABORATE02
Bring Your AI Drafts
We love working with generative concepts. Whether you have early Midjourney boards, Runway/Kling generations, or rough animatics, bring them to the table. We’ll take your AI drafts and build them out into seamless production assets.
TRADITIONAL CRAFT03
After Effects & 3D Precision
AI gives you rapid ideas; our 15+ years of London broadcast experience provides the final polish. We composite generative elements into proper After Effects & 3D CGI pipelines with bespoke typography and flawless colour management.

The CV that
shoots back.
CV Blaster began as a slightly stupid attempt to turn a conventional CV into an arcade game. Instead of scrolling through TV credits, you fly through them and shoot them. It seemed like a good idea at the time—and, against all odds, it’s actually a fun game to play. Dodge incoming fire, chase a high score and blast your way through years of television work.
