We got involved with Big Brothers Big Sisters out Chilliwack way and had a great time sponsoring their annual golf tournament.  I had an idea to create a video for them about the event and have it done in time to play at dinner the same day.  It was an insane schedule to try and pull off, but through Jason's wicked quick cutting skills we not only delivered this little masterpiece within about 10 hours, but Mike and I actually played all 18 holes. Robert and Jason were happier working their butts off anyways.

We LOVE IT when a project like this comes along because there's honestly nothing more fun than creating carnage and bloodsplatters.  Surprisingly, some of the trickier FX in this video were things like making Alex appear to be running really fast, and not looking cheesy like they did in Twilight... unless that's what they were going for with Twilight.  Either way, cheesy FX are sometimes called for and sometimes they're just plain cheesy.  These two videos were not meant to be cheesy.  I'm getting hungry now. Watch the videos while I go get something to eat.

The range of effects we created for this video were very wide; from the motion graphics of the demension explainations to designing and building slug bodies in Maya, and lots lots more.  And when you've got a video like this that plays every joke so straight, and the whole thing is meant to seem sincere and real - you have to be careful that the FX don't steal the show or seem like spectacle. Basically, we forgot everything Michael Bay said about making Transformers 2, and that made things a lot easier.
