Hello Carey, I'm posting to this thread as part of my DD on a company called Hall Train Entertainment (Canadian OTC-HTRN). I'm not attempting to hype the stock, however if you read the following post you'll understand why I'm here. Is this info common knowledge, is it true, is it important to spar or is it a little bit of gravy on the side. Sorry I don't follow Spar but I saw this thread tonight and had to ask. Thanks a lot Randy
As you know Halltrain does have an animation department. They have done various productions including a sequence for the American Museum of Natural History, footage seen on the Learning Channel and PBS, and award winning commercials.
The dinosaurs they are building for MCA/Universal are also very specialized. The latest contract is for the largest dinosaur ever built, the Memenchisaurus, measuring 80 feet in length, which appeared on the earth in the late Jurassic period, approximately 100 Million years ago. It will premiere for viewing at the prestigious American Museum of Natural History, New York City.
The lifesize dinosaurs they are building for the MCA/Universal theme parks are robotic, and will move on their own. The robotics are being done by Spar Aerospace, the company that designed the Canada Space Arm for the NASA space shuttles. This is one of the foremost robotics companies in the world.
It is big business Halltrain is getting into. Their CEO Lawrence Keller was with 20'th Century Fox for 10 years, as Canadian Vice President and General Manager, followed by a promotion to position of Vice President of 20'th Century Fox Television and Communications International
After rereading my post it does sound a little bit like hype :o) but I would appreciate any insight. |
