just gor email today - I assume few of us got this too... Dear Kickstarter Backers!
I'm excited to announce that we're almost done with all of the tracking work on RISE. The tracking and performance transfer to transform our lead actor into a robot is perhaps the most technically challenging aspect of the VFX work. There are over 40 shots to tracks totaling over 2,000 frames.
The tracking is being done by the best over at Peanut VFX and they're doing incredible work!
The VR Experience is chugging along. We have a working build and we're going to spend the next couple of weeks optimizing it so that it'll run on a wider range of PCs.
I had the time of my life. It's a wonderful lesson that if you do the things you love, that's the way to go. Rufus

Looks like that little project Rufus was working on with Anton Yelchin was a short film! It has a Kickstarter now, and if it gets funded, we'll be able to see it!
If you click on "Campaign" then you'll get the video. The Rooftop is a gold mine, we just sometimes have to polish our gold to shine again.
I just watched a preview. It's very slick. The special effects are impressive and Rufus is cool and dastardly. Doesn't look too shabby in that uniform either
