Life After People

Life After People: The Series is a stunningly graphic journey to a world wiped clean of humanity. In every episode, aired on the History Chanel, viewers will witness the fate of a particular environment, city or theme resulting in human’s departure from earth. Green Grass Studios was hired to create a series of special effects that provided unforgettable visuals to support the episodes featuring the ambitious destruction of the iconic Burj Kalifa tower, the ruin of the Sacramento Airport, and the devastation to the Spirit of Saint Louis Aircraft which is showcased in the National Air and Space Museum. Human’s won’t be around forever and now we can see in detail, for the very first time, the world that will be left behind the moments after people disappear.

Check out the video of the collapse of the Burj Kalifa tower.

Hawthorne Debuts Tonight!

As TNT orders up another drama centering on a strong female lead, Green Grass Studios in conjunction with The Outfit, offers up another successful delivery of state of the art visual effects that are guaranteed to contribute to the shows anticipated success. Hawthorne, debuting tonight at 8pm central TNT, chronicles the life of a single mother and the Chief Nursing Officer at Richmond Trinity Hospital in North Carolina. Created by emmy-winning writer-producer John Masius, Christina Hawthorne (played by Jada Pinkett Smith) gives tribute to those that make caretaking their life's work.

This project has been a perfect fit for our studio because it has required the development of photo realistic computer generated imagery to be tracked into each scene. The first episode had our team busy developing and inserting a prosthetic limb for a main character into three shots. We are excited to be a part of the Hawthorne production process and we are looking forward to future episodes.
