The most watched film in Norwegian cinemas in 2025.
The Amanda Award for Best Visual Effects in 2026.

That film is A Mouse Hunt for Christmas. We made around 500 shots for it, with animated hero characters and visual effects, all from our studio in Oslo.

A Mouse Hunt 2 is now in production.

Expanse has built worlds through animation and visual effects for more than a decade. Feature films, game cinematics, commercials and theme park attractions.

We keep it simple. You get clear conversations about scope, cost and what is actually achievable, and you talk directly to the artists doing the work. We come in early and stay until it is done: prep, on set and post.

Norwegians have a phrase for people you can rely on: hel ved. Solid wood, all the way through. That is the standard we hold ourselves to.

Let's make something together!
