Office brag: 5 LA tech offices you’ll wish you worked at

Reel FX

Founded in Dallas in the early 1990s, Reel FX now calls DAFW and Los Angeles home, with a swanky second HQ in Santa Monica. The company, which develops animated short films and interactive content, recently partnered with Oculus VR for the VR developer’s “VR For Good” initiative that will donate $1 million to inspire social change.

Favorite spot: “My favorite part of our studio is the screening room — to see artists get creative and share their talent on the screen makes our days joyous. It’s a happy place for us. Watching us grow over the years — from smaller VFX projects to animated feature films — is something I’ll always be proud of, knowing that I’m part of a team that helps encourage and nurture those creative voices. That’s who we are. That’s what Reel FX is all about.” — Gladys Belloso, Artist Management
