Wes Anderson is my favorite director/storyteller. Now he’s spent the last 5 years working on bringing to life Roald Dahl’s book Fantastic Mr. Fox. Now I have a new best movie without ever seeing it! I’m also getting this fine publication on the Making of.
Hecq Vs Exillion – Spheres Of Fury from Tim.Chris.Film on Vimeo.
Nice side project by Christopher Hewitt and Tim Brown. Shot on a Canon 7D. Liking the end titles!
Here’s another behind the scenes of how we created the global commercial for Standard Bank.
In maintaining the momentum of our “behind the scenes” series we found an awesome post on District 9 from the team at CGSociety. Now we have a little more pride in this movie as it was created by a local man Neill Blomkamp. So for all you tech freaks out there, check out the brilliant articles. Don’t forget the “making of” is a two part series!

Not only do the Japanese have a Animation Department of Kyoto Seika University’s Faculty of Manga, (phew that is a mouth full), but the Japanese are brilliant when it comes to extreme angles and facial expressions.
We thought we would share with everyone our behind the scenes process of the new Ford Everest TV spot.
Step 1: Get hold of Dreamworks

With the game that started it all, comes something you may or may not want…THE MOVIE!!!!!!
Lots has been happening here at Luma, and one of our big projects has been Luma Arcade. So what does Luma Arcade do? Well if you are a tech freak and want the behind the scenes, take a look at Brett Seyler’s latest post here on his travels to South Africa, as well as what’s going on with iPhone development, and the role Luma has played in it.

Once again on Phew, we showcase some of the hottest artists out there. Meet Sam Jinks.
So you want to get underneath the skin of your favourite character? So did Michael Paulus
If we are talking about the artist who has it all, Ashley Wood comes to mind.
From working on the ultimate comics, hottest AAA game titles and bringing out his own toy range, we can only but drool. Tons of printed material of his art can be found at most online book stores. Hopefully the man could one day make it to South Africa. But for now, we shall just buy his comics, read his books and keep his kick ass toys in their original packaging.

So lovin’ the art of Robert Mars. Its a good mix mash of old school and cool.
A quote from the man himself. “My paintings employ layers of color, subtly collaged printed matter from the 1950’s and 1960’s, and stark, black imagery. Remote, indistinct landscapes capture the once poetic, and now nearly lost highway strips of the American past. Formerly the promise of hope and prosperity; these icons are now a sign of desperation and ruin.”
Phew, now that deserves a look see here!
