We were happy to sponsor this production workshop, even more thrilled with the outcomes of each ‘micro short’ film. Always cool to see how our live/practical FX can partner with VFX

Thanks @zeedrives for your kind words and totally epic #gopro shot! Such a great episode working #stuntsandeffects with you Repost from @zeedrives Last night’s finale of Nancy Drew Season 3 features my favourite stunt of the series! ... The above video is raw footage from a @gopro that I hid on the lamppost the sunbeam hit - the camera flew 80 feet but made it out unscathed (thanks @thatdriftingdollygrip for finding it in a field in the dark!) It’s incredibly special to get to plan and perform a pstunt like this surrounded by the crew that has been my family for three seasons, and to have my mentor @gastonrmorrison there supporting me on the shoot day. I’m very glad to have been working with Tony Lazarowich @pacwestspfx and his team on this gag - they are all consummate professionals who put safety first - much of the credit for this gag goes to them - I drove the hit vehicle, but their redirect system made sure the unmanned Sunbeam was where it needed to be when it needed to be there. I’m very grateful to @drewcrewwriters writers, our fearless leader @tengstagram and @cw_nancydrew team for keeping the crash in the script and trusting Tony and I do our thing! #stunt #stunts #stuntdriver #zandarakennedy #specialeffects #spfx #effectsrig #tonylazarowich #mppia #filmedinbc #pacwestspfx

Shot on location in Alberta with snow, rain, mud, explosions, gunfire and all SPFX by Pacwest for Discovery.

Pacwest creating snow and SPFX for some very beloved Christmas movies, even helping out Santa :)

Pacificwest SPFX & Coordinator Tony Lazarowich with amazing crew did the all of the snow dressing for the Christmas film Deck the Halls (2006 film)...check out the behind the scenes shots of Buddy Hall's house. Fun Fact- did you know this film was shot in the middle of summer during a heat wave? It was 100 degrees while filming, look at the crew in their shorts making snow! #deckthehalls #moviemaking #specialeffects #BehindTheScenes #MakingSnow

It’s that time of year again, celebrating Elf the movie that Pacificwest SPFX did all of the snow & SPFX on! A classic that we are proud of.
