Have you seen the forecast for this week? Looks like a warm front moving in on Friday… But don't worry--that's not why we'll be closed Monday and Tuesday of next week.

Monday, Dec. 24 Tuesday, Dec. 25 Monday, Dec. 31 Tuesday, Jan. 1 Please plan accordingly… and have a ...

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image="345" img_size="full" add_caption="yes"][vc_column_text] Boo! Did we scare you? Well, if that didn't, perhaps it will raise your hair and chill your spine to know that Halloween is on the horizon… and for those of us in the entertainment industry, it's coming up so fast, it's scary! But there's a silver lining to the dark, ominous clouds looming in the distance: it's about to become a whole lot more affordable to create some truly thrilling spectral effects (pun intended!) in ...

ANNOUNCEMENT: Wildfire will be closed July 4 for Independence Day. Please plan accordingly. As our nation turns 236 years old, it's good to be reminded how revolutionary the idea of freedom is. Seems there are always special interests at odds with individual liberty… not to mention the apathy of those who don't recognize their own chains. As Harriet Tubman once said, "I freed a thousand slaves. I could have freed a thousand more if only they knew they were slaves." ...

The Effects Master Energy II uses less than a third of the energy of the Effects Master Standard. Usually, the beach is associated with bathing, boarding, and babes in bikinis. But this May 26 and June 23, Dockweiler Beach is doing something new: Black light on the beach. (It's lucky that Dockweiler Beach happens to be the only L.A. County Beach open at night!) Here's what's going down… It's called Nite-Write, and it's part of a collaboration between ...

Test shot from "Creative Process", a black light stop-motion film produced by Bradley Lawrence. Ever since we first saw Bradley Lawrence's work, which we wrote about here, we've been enamored. Lawrence is an artist who creates, among other things, stop-motion animation using the black light effect. In fact, we think his work is so cool and unique, we've decided to sponsor his latest project, "Creative Process." "Creative Process" is an art film using the black light effect and ...
