I have seen and done some crazy shitz in my life but this is beyond crazy this is totally AMAZING.

If there is one thing amazing about mankind we seem to love testing the limit of our bodies, whether it’s to the extreme or ultra extreme. I have tested myself many times and know the limit of my body. Would I test it further today, without a doubt I would except I know the fears and there would be a slight hesitation. This wild and crazy wing suit stunt is so amazing I wish I had the gals to do something like that. actually it only take maybe on try and I would want to do it.

On February 17th wingsuit pilot Dan Vicary took advantage of some fresh powder on the Silberhorn, a mountain in the Swiss Alps, and went for a breathtaking wingsuit flight. Luckily for us, he took along filmer and director Brian Drake who, in a balls-out feat of airborne camera work, flew about eight feet behind him and captured every second. You can’t get closer to the action than this without having a squirrel suit and a parachute. Two Wingsuit Pilots Filmed Their Flight in a Way That Will Astonish You | A Straight Shot, Ep. 1

REALTALK!!– LIFE AFTER PI (Official) VFX

life-after-pi

As a fellow VFX animator, artist and designer I feel it for these studios that take a hit. As the founders of Rhythm and Hues stated they existed for 25 years before having to close their doors and that is an achievement in itself. Running a company is no easy walk in the park especially a creative venture. From my understanding a creative venture is easier to start but harder to maintain unlike a technology based business which is normally the reverse. It’s hard to start but once the traction is in place it could run almost forever, you simply have to keep on innovating else you will to another who comes with a better innovation. I could go on and on but this post is about Rhythm and Hues and the world of VFX so sit and enjoy.
