Making a Blizzard in April
Apr.05, 2013
Last night’s “Elementary” was a snowy one. If you don’t follow the show, Sherlock Holmes and his assistant Joan Watson try to solve a crime in the middle of a massive blizzard. The city has shut down and the roads are treacherous…It is the worst blizzard the city has seen in years…
In reality though, the city was totally fine! That’s where we helped out.

Working in a VFX studio is pretty fun – especially when you convert your conference room into a mini studio where you’re making your own blood elements.

A Very Molecule Retrospective
Jan.04, 2013
Over the past 12 months, we have been busy little molecules at our offices in in NYC and LA. Between comping, producing, animating, and consuming copious amounts of coffee, we’ve accumulated quite a list of things we’re proud of.
Therefore, who could blame us for getting caught up in this annual opportunity to share a year’s events? We would be remissed if we didn’t jump on the annual family update bandwagon. We’ve even included a family photo! Look how much we’ve grown!
And so, we are proud to present to you, “A Look Back: The 2012 Collective Molecule Family Update”
Next Nuke Users Group on 11/27/12
Nov.21, 2012
What are you up to on Tuesday, November 27th? If your answer was “errrrrr,” let The Molecule help you out.
Next week the next Nuke Users Group event will be held at OffHollywood on 580 Broadway (map) at 6:30pm. Nuke creators The Foundry will be there to unveil their latest developments, and Molecule founder Chris Healer as well as Molecule comp supervisor Austin Meyers will both be speaking. To sweeten the deal, Chris has been hinting all week that he will be revealing a new secret weapon for the VFX industry at the event.
There will also be a fundraiser to benefit victims of Hurricane Sandy. Sources say they will be auctioning off a copy of MARI, donated by the Foundry (proceeds to benefit the Red Cross). There’s only one way to be the next proud owner of one of the most powerful pieces of 3D painting software in the industry – be there or be square.
