Although Rocky Linux is the officially recommended platform, running Beeble Studio locally on Ubuntu is possible.

You just need to convert the installation package. For Ubuntu 20.04:

sudo apt-get install alien
#downgrade cpio (otherwise it throws an error)
sudo apt-get install -y --allow-downgrades cpio=2.13+dfsg-2
sudo alien beeblestudio-x86_64.rpm --scripts
sudo apt install ./beeblestudio_0.4.15-2_amd64.deb 

Then follow the Beeble installation steps: download the assets, authenticate, and run it.

As a contractor for Accenture Song VFX, I worked from December 2024 to July 2025 on 28 paint/compositing shots, 60 matchmove shots, and 44 rotoscope shots for the show’s final season. This totalled about 816 hours of work across all five episodes.

As a fan of the series, it was an amazing opportunity to contribute. The VFX breakdown below includes a few of my shots.

The classic high-school genre, starring Brandon Routh (Superman) with horror alien/zombie visual effects directed by Joseph Kahn? Sign me up!!! It was a blast to work on: 215 shots involving camera matchmoving, object tracking, and body rotomation.
