Boma Launches Los Angeles VFX Studio

Specializing in visual effects, design, and immersive, the studio boasts a 100% remote pipeline with global partners and U.S.-based senior creative talent.

Jonah Hall (ECD) and Jason Cohon (EP) have founded and launched Boma, a fully remote studio specializing in visual effects, design, and immersive. The Los Angeles-based studio offers solutions for the constantly changing digital production landscape.

“Building teams and securing technology for post, VFX, animation, and other forms of digital production is a completely different process now," shared Hall. “It all started with COVID and continued to decentralize from there. We’re essentially rebuilding ourselves to meet this new reality and help clients get through it all.”

Boma aims to provide quick turnarounds within tight budgets while maintaining creative quality. The studio specializes in visual effects, animation, editorial, finishing, and motion graphics, as well as creative direction. The studio’s 100% remote pipeline includes global partnerships on three continents as well as U.S.-based senior creative talent, allowing for rapid scaling of projects.

The studio has already delivered a project for Amazon Music, a reimagining of Anderson.Paak’s 2016 hit single “Celebrate” to create Destination.Paak - The Lexus GX Remix. Boma provided special effects for emotive instruments, gravity-defying rock dancers, and even the Lexus GX itself.

“We are fans at heart and being able to work on music videos for artists we listen to is just plain fun,” added Cohon. “Having the ability to be nimble and scale to the project is our greatest asset. We would never have been able to put this project together as a brick-and-mortar shop. That power to say, ‘Yes!’ is what makes Boma unique.”
