I just learned today that the VFX house, The Orphanage, in San Francisco is officially closing its doors. It was a real surprise considering the amazing work they’ve done, like in Iron Man. Seems the economic downturn is hitting everyone hard this year. There are  several instructors at our school who work at the Orphanage, so it is really sad news.

Read more about it here at co-founder Stu Maschwitz’s blog.

I added the breakdowns for the following:

• The Sky is Falling
• Day 2 Night – Las Vegas Reloaded

Check them out in the porfolio section. I’ll be updating the rest of them soon.
