- Framestore (formerly Framestore CFC) is a British visual effects company founded in 1986 by Sharon Reed, William Sargent, Jonathan Hills, Mike McGee and Alison Turner. Much like Hybride Technologies and Zoic Studios, Framestore started out making commercials and TV Shows. In 1994, they started up their film division. To this day, they still work on Television shows and Commercials while making effects for their films. Their website can be found here.

They also point out that 2D and 3D artists from their Icelandic branch were required to make the project's tight turnaround time. Thus, the 2010 title sequence may be the first time that Icelandic nationals worked, however indirectly, on Doctor Who.

Each series featured an extensive amount of visual effects with several hundreds of VFX shots in each season with each episode featuring appromimately a hundred effect shots and most of them being very expensive character and creature animations.

Their final involvement with the Walking with... series was Walking with Monsters where they created nearly 600 VFK shots for the series. Outside of Walking with..., Framestore also worked with Impossible Pictures on creating the visual effects for their series concurrent and after Generation 1 of Walking with... These include Space Odyssey: Voyage to the Planets, Prehistoric Park, Ocean Odyssey, and the first three series of Primeval. More recently, they have done work with Hollywood movies such as 2013's Gravity and 2015's Avengers: Age of Ultron.

They were credited with "titles" on the following episodes: Nevertheless, their title sequence was used, in its basic form, until it was wholly retired after The Angels Take Manhattan. It's unclear why they received no credit during series 6, where the only obvious change to their work was the addition of Arthur Darvill's name.
