Foundation Imaging
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Foundation Imaging was a CGI visual effects studio, computer animation studio, and post-production editing facility that pioneered digital imaging for television programming using Newtek's LightWave 3D on Commodore Amigas. They are best known for their work on the first three seasons of Babylon 5, after which they were exclusively contracted to work with Paramount's Star Trek television properties. (Some of Foundation's employees left the company to found Netter Digital and continue work on Babylon 5.)
The company was dissolved after work on season one of Star Trek: Enterprise had been completed and the company assets were sold off in a public auction on December 17, 2002 by Brian Testo Associates, LLC.
