The trailer for Sucker Punch was released today, a film that I just wrapped up on recently. I was fortunate enough to have a few of my shots make it in to the trailer. Have a look for yourself.

The trailer for the Legend of the Guardian’s is out, a film that I worked on for best part of the past year.
Lee Stranahan has written an open letter to director James Cameron urging him to comment on working conditions for many visual effects artists, casting the spotlight on the industry this awards season.
An excerpt;
“Like most people who work in the film, television and video game industries, visual effects artists love their jobs. They enjoy both the work itself and the ability to work on a daily basis with so many smart, creative and talented people. However, visual effects houses can be the best, most fun and high-tech sweatshops on earth. Visual effects artists typically work with no contract, no paid vacation, no benefits, and often no paid overtime. And because of the nature of the work health problems such as obesity, tendinitis and carpal tunnel syndrome are common.”
(Thanks to Marcus for pointing me to this article).
