Portrait of Adrian Weber

Adrian Weber

CEO of Hypnos

Hey there! I'm Adrian, CEO of Hypnos, with a background in virtual production, ICVFX, technical direction, postproduction and production for high-end film and TV.

Hypnos is the engine behind Fireframe Studios in Helsinki. Much like a game engine powers a game, it is the tech layer that carries our films from script to screen. With Fireframe we make immersive-first genre films, designed from day one to work on a traditional screen and then expand into premium and immersive theatrical formats.

Over the years, I've worked on productions for studios including Searchlight, Apple TV, HBO, Netflix and Amazon Studios, always bridging cutting-edge technology and cinematic vision.
