Lesley-Ann Brandt as Guts in PAINKILLERS – 2015

It’s in a very inaccessible area, the guys who found it only did so because they happened to fly over it in a helicopter while looking for Bighorns. 

The monolith is so big that you would need some pretty heavy equipment to get it there and and even more heavy equipment to plant it into solid rock. So either a bunch of people with a bunch of heavy equipment, time and money put it there in secret and told absolutely nobody for god knows how long or it got there in a more mysterious way...

The Betz Sphere 

The Betz family lived on a large 88-Acre property near Jacksonville Florida. In the early 1970s their property was ravaged by a fire and during its inspection, they came across this perfect silver sphere which was 8 inches in diameter.

The Betz family thought it might be a new kind of government probe or satellite and decided to take the artifact home with them. They didn’t think much of it until it started behaving in odd ways.

 The first thing they observed in regards to the sphere was that it resonated with a frequency in response to their son strumming his guitar and that terrified their dog. When they rolled the sphere it would stop, turn around and come back towards the person who pushed it. The family claimed that it could also climb up a slanted table. Needless to say, a media frenzy ensued. Articles about the sphere appeared in publications like the New York Times and London Daily.

Even stranger things started happening at the Betz residence. Doors would open and slam shut on their own, strange music would play randomly, and their dog started staying outside because it was too afraid to come near the sphere. The family handed the sphere over to the Navy once things became unbearable for them.

After running a battery of tests, the Navy determined that the ball was nothing but an ordinary stainless steel ball which was probably part of an art project that belonged to a sculptor known as James Durling-Jones. 

Attraction (2017) by Fyodor Bondarchuk. Alien ship.

Attraction is a Russian movie directed by Fyodor Bondarchuk who is famous for Stalingrad. Main Road Post was responsible for all CG in the movie what was an honor for all team which I was a part of. The project gave us a lot of challenges what remarkably only inspired the team. During the project my role was a modeling supervisor. I was looking after 6 highly talented artists of the asset department in the office and 20-25 freelance artists. Meanwhile, I was working on a bunch of assets for the movie and actually I'd like to present you one of the most difficult assets which I was working on. It's an alien ship one of two heroes in the project.
