Star Citizen has now raised over $100 million in crowd funding, $45 million of which came in the past year. This means that Star Citizen brought in more money than every other successful video game kickstarters combined.
The space sim has gained so much popularity due to the 'intergalactic trading' feature where the player can trade rare materials around the galaxy, or can mine the materials and sell them on. And with the combat feature in place people can expect to fight off pirates, or become pirates in space.
VFX:
Recently Disney and Steven Spielberg started working on a live action BFG remake, the film will be released in July 2016. The trailer shows an ever-loved scene from both the book and the 1989 animated movie, where Sophie, (the main character) notices something out the window of her orphanage. The reveal of the BFG looks amazing so far, exactly what I expected a live action remake would look like after seeing the original.
Animation:
Anomalisa is a stop-motion film that so far has taken 3 years to produce. Some of the feats the crew have achieved are incredible, for instance over 1200 tiny human faces were finely sculpted all of which look different from the other along with over 1000 tiny day-to-day props such as desks, computers, clothes, and much much more.
Each animator had a goal of 2 seconds per day, which equates to 48 frames all having to be perfect. The project looks interesting so far, if the trailer is anything to go by the movie itself should be an amazing feat of animation.
