ABOUT

Ü MERIC

EST. 2001

Ümeric is a high-end design, motion and visual effects company founded in 2001.

Our mission is to bring inspiration and innovation by realizing culturally iconic visuals in advertising, film, television, and within spaces and cracks in-between.

We create work that connects people, which means something, stirs the soul, and holds up to the test of time.

We do that by creating ground-breaking work with high-end visuals that positively impact brands and their communities.

We only make one of its kind. Custom made, bespoke, handcrafted, ethical. No size fits all. Made for you. Collaborative, passionate and driven — we are Ümeric.

We strive to treat our clients like members of our team. We love to collaborate as this encourages the best ideas to be used no matter the source.

We believe the best results come from a collaborative approach, which ultimately produces the best outcome for the job. Give us a call or email — we would love to chat about your next project.
