Light Star on 20/20 Tonight

Friday, October 2nd, 2009

Christian Kilian, one of the child stars of our soon to be released independent film, Light, was interviewed by ABC News almost a year ago as part of a story on people who suffer from albinism and the tragedy that afflicts albinos in Africa, where they are killed because of a superstition about magical properties in their skin. Well, the show is finally going to air on ABC’s 20/20, tonight at 10pm, 9pm Central. Find more details on ABC’s website, and check your local listings for the episode you don’t want to miss! Light was written and directed by Marty Wisher.

It's Aliiiiiive!!!

Wednesday, May 20th, 2009

For weeks, we’ve talked about Max, Jake’s, so far unseen, pet that was created as a result of an explosion in science class. But for a variety of reasons, we kept Max under wraps so far. No longer. It is time that the world sees Max in all, okay, most of his glory. Thanks to some clever model work and a couple of long nights of puppeteering and compositing, we are now proud to show off the most unusual character from Light, Max:
