| December 21 |  We produced yet another Christmas short! This one was for National Banana, a comedy site created by Jerry Zucker, who's known for his comedy movies "Airplane!" and the "Naked Gun" series. Watch "Hot Xmas Lights," which we edited and did most of the effects for. Awesome! Also released today is a movie trailer for CollegeHumor.com. See "Million Dollar Babies" now and watch for our Visual Effects: titles, audience flashbulbs, punch-induced spittle and a 3D retainer!
|
| December 19 |  We made several effects shots for a short at JoeyandDavid.com. Some people think it's offensive, so watch "A Simple Gift" now!
|
| December 17 |  Ghostlight created two epic Visual Effects shots for "Claus," a rad Team Tiger Awesome short that pokes fun at movies like "300."
|
| December 13 |  We added a sky, candle flames, tranq darts, and lightning to CollegeHumor's "Street Fighter: The Later Years - Part 7."
|
| November 13 |  "Two Guys - Episode One" is featured on Funny or Die, and is super-highly rated! We shoot and edit the web series, which was created for Adam Ray TV. You can also watch Episode Two, and Episode Three. Here's a screenshot of the show on FunnyorDie.com.
|
| November 8 |  We created Visual Effects for "24: The Unaired 1994 Pilot." This College Humor parody strips the popular Fox series of its modern technology by setting the show in 1994 - a world of Windows 3.1, pagers, pay phones, and dangerously loud dial-up modems. Ghostlight created the opening "24" logo and added computer graphics to the monitors, which were completely blank when filming.
|
| October 31 |  See our Halloween costumes!
|
| October 22 |  We made a digital "lights up" effect and "leg wipe" for the opening of College Humor's "Brohemian Rhapsody" - the fraternity version of Queen's legendary song. Watch "Brohemian Rhapsody" and beware the "mature" content.
|
| October 19 |  Did you miss "Street Fighter: The Later Years"? Episode 5 contains a TON of our Visual Effects work, including new Hadoukens, and is quite possibly the funniest of the series.
|
| October 16 |  Ghostlight does WHAT? A lot! See our wide range of creative filmmaking services put to use at Adam Ray TV! The new site is home to the insanity that is comedian Adam Ray's creative mind. Dave and James were the Cinematographers, Editors, and VFX Supervisors for almost every one of the site's films. James even created the website itself!
|
