Rhythm and Hues are a visual effects house responsable for the effects in Life of Pi, Django Unchained and The Hunger Games. Or at least they were. Rhythm and Hues have been in the news rather extensively lately for going bankrupt despite Life of Pi winning an Oscar for Best Visual Effects.
It has sparked a lot of controversy over visual effects companies not being credited in films and people working to a loss for working on Hollywood movies. It certainly doesn't help that before properly thanking Rhythm and Hues when accepting the Oscar, Bill Westenhofer was hurried off stage to the theme of Jaws.
It certainly highlights what a bad way the industry is in and how brilliant effect work is not appreciated in Hollywood.
