Whilst we congratulate Lars Von Trier on cleaning the floor of the Robert Awards for his fine movie "Antichrist", "Superbror" did manage to win the award for Best Children's Movie.

Congratulations to director Birger Larsen and writer/producer Åke Sandgren from the VFX team at Blotnik Studios!

Superbror nominated for Best Visual Effects!

The movie Superbror where we did a substantial amount of the work was just nominated by the Danish Film Academy for best Visual Effects and best Youth Movie. It was a great project and a lot of fun.

Congrats to Thomas Dyg, the excellent VFX Supervisor who got the nomination and to our very own Patrick O'Casey who was lead compositor.

Another first for Blotnik. Livvagterne wins International Emmy.

Hope that the fine folk over at DR Drama are celebrating right now. The Danish scriptwriting duo of Peter Thorsboe and Mai Brostrøm have brought home their third International Emmy Award, after their ‘Livvagterne’ (The Protectors) show won in the Best Drama category last night.

We're proud to have worked on such a fine production. Big congrats to the winners!

Whilst in London we had the pleasure of working on Rob Marshall's new movie "Nine", starring Daniel Day-Lewis, Nicole Kidman and Penélope Cruz. Beautiful imagery, and all that jazz.

Foundry Acquires Katana from SPI for Nuke | Comper/Lighter, your future is nigh

The fine folks over @ fxguide have a an excellent write-up (as always) of the exciting and impending merger of SPI's Katana technology into Nuke. It's a good read and in my mind shines a light on what I believe is the future of the 2D department: Compers will become lighters as well. It's the only thing that makes sense.

Our work at Mobius has now come to a close. Thanks to all the great and hard working people there for making us feel so welcome. If you ever need a super high-quality shop in London then don't hesitate to drop them a line.

After a short break from London we've now arrived in Stuttgart and the lovely offices of Pixomondo. These people do some excellent work and it totally worth checking out .

Blotnik @ Mobius. 1st Hollywood flick!

kc — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 10:02:53 +0000

We just scored our first Hollywood gig. Patrick O'Casey will be working from London this fall, whilst Roberto Mensa holds the fort in Malmö.

Look for a celebratory party after the job is done. Maybe we could have that studio party that's been due for about 2 years...
