Slow motion: Revenue will be reeled back as more production companies take services in-house

Rapid changes in visual and sound editing technology have significantly influenced the Video Post-Production Services industry's performance. The increased adoption of digital workflows and advances in software have made post-production techniques more accessible for film, TV and commercial producers. Many production companies have brought post-production services in-house, which has shifted industry demand towards sophisticated services, like high-quality visual effects and animation. Industry companies with the expertise required to offer these services have benefited from this trend. Industry profit has shot up due to robust industry service demand backed by government tax incentives.
