Rising Sun secures Green Lantern VFX
Adelaide-based Rising Sun Pictures has confirmed it will deliver VFX for the Warner Bros. blockbuster Green Lantern.
“The sustained strength of the Australian dollar is not helping attract lucrative, longer term contracts to our shores. Rising Sun is pleased to have brought a fraction of the Green Lantern spend back to Australia,” said CEO Michael Taylor.
According to Taylor, a sliding rebate scale locked in with the dollar exchange rate (to a maximum of 30 percent) would help re-position Australia internationally.
Company director Tony Clark added that while this project will benefit from the reduction in the PDV rebate threshold, “the Australian Government still needs to do more to ensure the local industry can remain competitive on a larger scale”.
good news for Rising Sun
hopefully there isn’t a repeat of the Wolverine leaked version debacle
I wonder if they ever did track down who leaked that copy?
What prat you are Dean. Fancy bringing up such a lame point on top of a good news story about work coming in to this country. You show your ignorance by tagging this story with such a remark.
