Basing on Duy Tan University’s documentary film-project which aims at reviving the first air combat of Vietnam People’s Air force, Silver Swallows Studio is founded with its early capital: the image of the “old-fashioned” MiG-17, a kind of aircraft making Vietnam’s glorious victory on two days April 3 and 4, 1965. Vietnam People’s pilots at that time sweetly called MIG-17s swallows, a kind of birds bringing about the beautiful spring. MiG-17 was painted silver, which made it named Silver Swallow later.
With the strong passion and ambition of dominating Vietnam’s immature VFX industry (Visual Effect or eFfx) , our Silver Swallows Studio works with the slogan “learning by doing” so that we can, step by step, develop to become professional by the contribution of each member’s skill and spirit, creating communal power and heading to the intrinsic value of “professionalizing from STAFF to PROCEDURE” .

Sometimes referred to as 3D CGI, 3D animation is a type of animation that uses computer generated images to create animated scenes. Compared to 2D animation, or traditional animation, 3D has much more depth, and it looks much more realistic. An animated scene starts with one picture, which is referred to a frame. The next frame is a picture that is slightly advanced a few milliseconds in time. After hundreds or thousands of these frames are flashed on a screen in rapid succession, they give the illusion of a moving picture. The majority of the animated feature movies and short animated skits today are created with 3D animation, and this is a rapidly growing industry.
