Wētā FX Expands into Taiwan with AI and VFX Partnership

New Zealand visual effects company Wētā FX has announced a partnership with the Taiwan Creative Content Agency (TAICCA) aimed at developing Taiwan as a regional hub for AI-driven screen production and visual effects.

The agreement includes plans for Wētā FX to invest in Taiwan-based Moonshine Studio, a visual effects and animation company. The proposed investment remains subject to due diligence.
