June 5, 2015: 7 Days to the Dark Matter Premiere!

Very Bad Boys!

Jay and I are putting the finishing touches on a VFX-laden trailer that will blow your socks off.  It’ll go wide next week – along with an assortment of other Dark Matter-related goodies in the lead-up to the premiere.

Fun, ship-based scifi makes it’s triumphant return in a week!  Help spread the word!

Oooh, lookit the pretty space station.  Gorgeous.  And, yep, that’s one of ours.  It accompanies an article over at Space.com:

I’m just going to go ahead and say it.  Our visual effects are as good, if not better, than any other show out there.  Yes, even the one’s with MUCH bigger budgets.  We’re going to surprise a lot of people next Friday – except you all, of course, because you’re savvy enough to know what to expect.  Big, BIG things!

Well, I’m finally back home in Vancouver.  I never sleep well the night before a flight and so, by the time I fell asleep, it was more or less time to wake up as we were being picked up at 4:45 a.m. to catch a 6:30 a.m. flight.  Our buddy Jeff joined us for the voyage west.   Great guy!

Once we’d unpacked and settled in, it was over to the Taqueria for lunch with Dark Matter Consulting Producer Ivon Bartok – looking all summer fashionable.

Then, it was a short walk over to The Book Warehouse where I visited Darlene (pictured above with the day’s purchases) and the gang.

Pictured above: my daunting to-read pile.  Better get on it!

Hey remember that research station design?  http://io9.com/exclusive-dark-matter-concept-art-is-loaded-with-glorio-1705562602

Well, it’s in the hands of our VFX team now and coming along nicely.

Next up, textures and color!
