What is ReelApps?

ReelApps builds custom-designed, fully functional apps and websites that actors can use live on camera during filming. Instead of tapping on a static image or VFX placeholder, actors interact with real screens — making performances more natural and immersive.

Why not just use green screen or post-production VFX?

ReelApps reduces the need for extra VFX by giving you a real, working interface on set. This:

• Saves time in post-production

• Makes actor interactions more believable

• Gives the director immediate visual feedback on-screen
  

Do your apps really work, or are they just animations?

They’re real, interactive apps — designed specifically for your scene. You can scroll, tap, swipe, type, and more. We tailor the visuals and functionality to match your script and aesthetic.

What kinds of apps can you build?

We’ve built fake messaging apps, news sites, banking apps, email clients, and more. If you can imagine it on a screen, we can create a version that works live during a take.

How long does it take to build an app?

Most apps take 3–7 days, depending on complexity. We’ll work closely with your art team to hit the right style and function quickly — even under tight shooting schedules.
