Imagineer Systems Launching VFX Architecture mogul at NAB
Modular Desktop- and Systems-Based Solutions unites Editing, Compositing, 3D Design and Finishing in Open Architecture

For many years the finishing and VFX realm has been dominated by Autodesk and Quantel. Well, there’s soon to be a new option for high-end work as Imagineer Systems will soon launch mogul, an open, collaborative architecture integrating visual effects systems and desktop applications.
At the core of the mogul architecture is an open platform that connects all the tools in a facility, tracks the workflow, alerts artists of updates and reports the progress of all projects. While Imagineer will roll out new individual products as part of mogul – ranging from a rotoscoping tool to a fully featured, systems-based mastering suite – the open architecture allows facilities to plug existing tools from other manufacturers into this platform to leverage the workflow. And all of the mogul products will be offered solely on by monthly subscription.
We spoke with Allan Jaenicke, chief executive officer of Imagineer Systems about mogul, and why Imagineer Systems ventured on this enormous undertaking that it is betting will be powerful enough to challenge the systems-based finishing systems from Autodesk and Quantel, as well as a variety of popular desktop applications.
