A boutique VFX studio for independent film productions.
Founders
My name is Julia Millais.
I am a VFX artist, an on-set VFX supervisor and a co-founder of Imagine Magic FX.
Creating film visual effects is not just a job for me. It has been my dream to work and play, in this field, ever since I watched my first SCI-FI movie as a kid.
Although I’ve built my career as a manager of large international projects, I love to paint and always had a burning desire to know how to make the magic happen. This is what lead me to becoming a VFX artist.
After moving to Canada, in 2021, my business mission became making VFX accessible to the smaller productions and educating them on how to shoot for VFX.
CGI art is a collective effort, by a group of diverse speciality artists working together, to enable the vision of the film director or show runner. Therefore, my work requires the ability to comprehend, and embrace, someone else’s concept or idea and make it happen for them, on screen. I believe that is my superpower. This understanding is where my job starts.
My motto is: Everything is possible. The impossible just needs a little bit more time.

My name is Ian Millais.
My name is Ian Millais. I was an executive, in the financial industry, for 45 years. Since I was a child I was surrounded by the most amazing people from the film industry. Music and film are my passions. Although I produced several albums and music videos, I found my true calling in film creation and VFX production.

I co-founded Imagine Magic FX with my wife Julia in 2023. Today I help run the company and I'm a script writer/director following my dreams and making films.
