The 3D Digital Frontier animation studio (which has participated in series such as Gantz and the animated sequences of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate) made the decision that its workers start working from home in response to the government's instructions to prevent further infections from the new coronavirus disease (COVID-19).
Approximately 200 employees are working from their homes for the company through the TGX Remote Desktop platform, which means that all the computers in the studio continue to operate remotely.
CEO Yuusaku Toyoshima posted a video via Twitter showing how the studio looks these days. “You can see how in the offices there is not a single person, only turned on computers. The work is being done behind the scenes, ”he said.
Digital Frontier Studios was founded as a specialized CG animation division in 1994. It was not until 1997 that it established itself as a subsidiary of TYO Corporation and three years later took its current name.デジタルフロンティアのリモートワーク風景。無人の社内にモニターの明かりが。画面ではどんどん作業が進んでいるよ。 pic.twitter.com/LVxZRiE84H— toyo (@toyoshimax) April 27, 2020
Earlier this month, 3D animation studio Polygon Pictures also announced that all of its employees would be working from home. Like Digital Frontier, workers access their workstations remotely through a VPN, which greatly decreases their internet speed.
