Co-founded by Yanick Wilisky and Marc Bourbonnais in 2007, Modus FX is a visual effects company that offers digital production services for film, television and new media. Modus FX has worked on projects for clients such as Marvel Studios, Summit Entertainment, Relativity Media, The Mark Gordon Company, Sony Pictures, Discovery Channel, Warner Bros.

On February 28, 2014, the company, which at the time consisted of 100 staff members, was shut down due to financial problems.
