Go behind the scenes of Seth Morley's ‘SKETCH’ -->

Here’s an amazing 30min preso recorded at Maxon Summit in 2024 (a year before the film was released!). Lots of fun details on tools, including for the creatures, and for a ton of invisible VFX.

Incoming!

A soviet spacecraft that was launched in 1972 is forecast for an uncontrolled re-entry likely on May 9th or 10th, 2025.

The Kosmos 482 descent craft is the lander module from a failed Soviet Venera mission to the planet Venus.

Its landing module, weighs in at 495 kg and is highly likely to reach the surface of Earth in one piece as it was designed to withstand 300 G’s of acceleration and 100 atmospheres of pressure.
