Setterwalls has assisted Dream Machine FX in the acquisition of the VFX studio Important Looking Pirates. Dream Machine FX is a global collective of studios specializing in world-class visual effects and digital animation and serves leading entertainment companies worldwide in film, TV, advertising, and interactive gaming. Dream Machine FX operates in North America, Europe, and Australia and is enabled by Arenova Capital, a US-based principal investment firm focused on founder-owned and founder-led companies in the middle market.
Important Looking Pirates is a world-class studio for visual effects and digital animation founded in Stockholm in 2007. Since then, the company has grown into an award-winning studio with offices in Sweden, Germany, and the UK. The transaction marks Dream Machine FX’s entry into the European market, expanding both companies’ scale and reach, with a combined footprint spanning three continents, six countries, and eleven cities.
