The pace at Thomas FX, and Thomas Studios, continues to be more than hectic as we approach our annual Holiday shutdown. 

Last week, a Hallmark production crew was busy at Thomas Studios filming a portion of a movie called "In My Dreams". 

The Hallmark crew was great to work with . . . Thanks Everyone!

This week Thomas Studios is hosting a film crew from Sweden. They are shooting segments for a film about an old Finnish folk hero.

Here is where it gets very interesting. One of the stars of the film is a live polar bear!

In 1994 Thomas FX was involved in the filming of a feature film called Alaska. Charlton Heston starred in the film and his son Fraser Heston was the Director. Betty Thomas was the Stunt Coordinator on the film.

Alaska also featured a polar bear cub named "Aggie" . . . the same polar bear, now fully grown, that will be working in Thomas Studios this week.

Welcome to Thomas Studios Aggie!

Our sincerest apologies. Unfortunately, we have been dealing with a family health emergency for the past month and are only now getting back to normal. 

During our absence, Radiant Pictures of Los Angeles filmed a television commercial in Thomas Studios on behalf of Suzuki Motors. The commercial will be telecast in Japan.

Last Samurai Co-Star Ken Watanabe was the principle actor in the Japanese commercial.

Thank you for choosing Thomas Studios. It was a privilege to host your production, and an honor to have Mr. Watanabe working in our studio.

Vancouver rockers Hollywood Hoodlums recently filmed their latest Rock Video DVD at Thomas Studios. 

Check out their music . . . . tight and smooth!

Thanks guys. It was a pleasure hosting your shoot at Thomas Studios.

Come back and see us again soon.
