Kent Town firm puts whambam into Batman

The Advertiser: Kent Town firm puts whambam into Batman :

"The release this week of comic-book superpower Batman Begins showcases the heavyweight handiwork of Rising Sun. The Kent Town Company was also involved with Return of the King and is working on sequences for potential blockbusters Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Superman Returns and Charlotte's Web – the latter two films are being made in New South Wales and Victoria."

Didn't realise we'd worked on Batman!! How exciting. I know we have a long history of association with film, the film industry and special effects work. Adelaide people enjoy their films and there is a good appreciation of film making and film makers here. The digital stuff is really taking off and Rising Sun and Kojo Group are companies which win some prestigious contracts. I guess in Adelaide you can just become absorbed in what you are doing and get on with it without any fuss. Sometimes because people have no idea there is fame and fortune to be had here and sometimes because we just let people get on with what they need to do and respect their space. It's a funny city like that. Kent Town is a very productive business area of Adelaide but it is very unique and has some really lovely old buildings. It's a little niche area with its own feel...not a bad effort in a small place like this.
