Academy Award Nomination for
"The Counterfeiters"

everyone at rise | visual effects berlin would like to congratulate director Stefan Ruzowitzky and his entire crew on the academy award nomination for "The Counterfeiters". the true and very emotional story about the production of fake foreign currencies inside the german concentration camp sachsenhausen during world war two had critics raving around the globe during the last year. our job for tvt. postproduction frankfurt was to create invisible digital set extensions in a way they would not distract audiences from the cold and relentless reality of the prisoner's lives.

we will keep our fingers crossed for the academy awards on 24. february.
