Introducing Univah Pro™ – The First-Ever Film Engine
Thank you for considering the addition of Univah Pro to your 3D animation and rendering pipeline.
The Problem: There Was No Film Engine
Game Engines Aren’t Built for Filmmakers
Before 2022, the concept of a film engine didn’t exist. after writing our first animated short The Book of Revelation, (IMDb) We went searching for a modern tool to bring our film to life—something powerful, real-time, and built with storytelling in mind. What we found instead were game engines—great for interactive content but never intended for film. Filmmakers like us were forced to repurpose tools meant for games into something that could work for cinema. It was clunky, time-consuming, and creatively limiting.
The Breakthrough: Univah Pro Is the Engine We Needed
After two years of intensive research, dozens of conversations with industry experts, and deep dives into graphics research papers, we stopped waiting for someone else to build what we needed—and built it ourselves.
Univah Pro is the result:
🎞️ A modern, C++-based real-time rendering software
💡 Built from the ground up for filmmakers, animators, and VFX artists
⚡ Fusing the best of Maya, Houdini, and modern game engines—without the long learning curve
Real-Time, No Compromises
The Univah Film Engine™ renders cinematic-quality visuals directly in the viewport.

Filmmakers don't want game looking graphics.
So, we give them higher than game engine graphics. We give them Film Quality graphics. Houdini level graphics. But in real time. Watch Video Here! This is a Film Engine™. And for those who want something less photorealistic, we provide Hollywood level toon shaders at the click of a button. No overly complex node graphs. No struggling (for hours) to make a new rendering style yourself.
The look we’ve achieved rivals what Houdini users produce after hours of rendering, but we’re doing it instantly in real time.
Therefore: We can truthfully say “Univah Pro delivers Houdini-level visual fidelity — in real time.”
Why Univah Pro is Different
✅ Film-Centric Workflow:
No need to hack together cinematic pipelines in a game engine. Univah Pro is made for directors and storytellers, not coders.
✅ VFX + Real-Time Raymarching:
Built-in Raymarch Editor lets you define volumetrics, procedural geometry, and SDF effects—all in real time.
✅ Custom Chemistry Lab for College Professors and College Students:
Our Trade Marked rReligion™ custom VFX Engine that uses the real periodic table to create particles.
✅ Intuitive UI, Maximum Power:
We believe professional tools shouldn’t be painful. Univah gets out of your way, and puts creativity front and center.
🎮 Game Engine Power: Leverages modern graphics APIs for performance akin to top-tier game engines.
✅ Freedom to Create:
Our EULA is simple and creator-first. You retain full rights to everything you make. Sell it anywhere. No strings attached.
✅ Using Real-Time as a Selling Point
This is one of our most powerful differentiators:
Game engines like Unreal Engine are real-time, yes — but they’re not designed with filmmakers in mind.
Univah Pro is a filmmaking-first engine that offers real-time cinematic results, without repurposing game logic or tools.
That means:
Directors and animators can iterate rapidly.
Cinematographers can preview lighting setups live.
Teams save enormous time and rendering costs.

Let us be clear:
You don’t get to copy our work in private while not acknowledging us in public.
Until we see genuine public appreciation and professional respect for what we’re building,
our software trial will remain private and invite-only. You will test the product for 1 hour under our supervision.
We’re not here to feed silent imitators.
We’re here for those who recognize vision, support originality, and aren’t afraid to say it out loud.
If you speak poorly about our product in public, but in secret, you are secretly copying our videos and trying
