Vancouver Web Fest 2018 another great sucess.

Another great year for the Vancouver Webfest, the premier event in North America for Web Series and VR content. And what a busy couple of days. 

This year we were asked to present the award for Best VFX in a Webseries to Strowlers from Seattle, US. Always impressed with the level of quality VFX in these webseries, people are really putting in their all.

Was lucky enough to sit on a panel where we talked about  "VFX for Indie film" along side Chris Orchard or Orchard VFX, and Adam Stern of Artifex Studios. We discussed techniques and procedures that indie film makers can use to get some quality shots for their budgets. 

And last but not least Sigil Digital's own Brewstars was nominated for Best Pilot.

Over all it was an amazing event put on by the wonderful Suzette Laqua and Paula Hoffman.

Another Sigil Digital production - Arthur's Gift

Filming has completed for the visionary teaser trailer for a much longer story about a young boy named Arthur who discovers that he has a supernatural ability in 1940's Brooklyn. 

Written and Directed by Ryan Curtis, this proof of concept project was made to showcase what this intriguing story could look like on screen. A broad tale of intrigue, espionage and heroism with our main character who will be very familiar to many of our older viewers.
