Eden FX, which specializes in the design and production of visual effects work for all facets of the entertainment industry, recently provided CG effects for six television pilots: FATHOM and NY-70 for NBC, THRESHOLD and THE UNIT for CBS, and COMMANDER IN CHIEF and THE CATCH for ABC.
Four of the pilots, FATHOM, THRESHOLD, THE UNIT and COMMANDER IN CHIEF have been picked up to series.

They ranged from creature and water creation to photo realistic models of cars, ships and planes as well as matte paintings and set extensions" noted John Gross, Co-President/Creative Director, Eden FX. "We managed to deliver over 200 shots in a little under 6 weeks time while continuing to produce visual effects for our ongoing series work which includes ALIAS, LOST, MEDIUM, JAG, NAVY NCIS, ENTERPRISE, SIX FEET UNDER, and NUMB3RS."
"This was the largest amount of pilots that we have done in one season" added Mark Miller, Co-President, Eden FX, and we were really pleased how well everything went. It really is a credit to our incredibly talented and experienced staff and to the organization of our infrastructure which enables us to add additional equipment and artists quickly and seamlessly."
