VFX work on BBC's Wonders of the Solar System honoured.

Prime Focus LogoPrime Focus has won a Gold World Medal for Best Special Effects at the 2011 New York Festivals TV & Film Awards for its work on the BBC's 'Wonders of the Solar System' series.

The London-based Broadcast VFX team, led by Creative Director Simon Clarke, created over 30 minutes of original visual effects for the hit five-part series. VFX Supervisor Steve Waugh worked closely with a team of artists over a 12 month period to help visualise and bring the planets to life. This was inspired by photographic images taken from space probes such as the Cassini and Hubble telescopes.

Your Highness

Your Highness, opening in the US on 8th April 2011 and in the UK on 15th April 2011, marks the debut of a new cinematic sub-genre: the medieval stoner comedy. Directed by David Gordon Green, and written by and starring Danny McBride (who’d previously worked with Green on Pineapple Express), the film is an affectionate, if utterly filthy, tribute to the fantasy films its creators grew up on (Beastmaster, Willow, Krull et al). Starring McBride, James Franco and Natalie Portman, Your Highness was produced by Scott Stuber for Stuber Productions. Digital Visual Effects were created entirely by Framestore.
