Pysselkvälls have been a regular occurrence for our Goodbye Kansas team for 3+ years. They are events where the team meet together and craft, create and socialise. The Swedish word, Pyssel, can be translated as arts and crafts in English But there’s one rule to attending: your craft must be hands-on, and no screens allowed! ❌💻📱 Previous Pysselkväll events have included board games, figures, drawing, wax sculpting, plastic models and knitting. 🧶🎨🖌️ We think these events are a small yet super important aspect of why our team remains so creative and is willing to think outside the box in a technological world. What do you do to escape the screen and flex your creativity? We'd love to know! 👇 #teamculture #stockholm #vfx #creativity

Our motion and performance capture isn't only used for somersaults and fighting alike - oh no! At the end of September, we were delighted to have stunt performer Nicklas Hansson lead TeaterAlliansen AB on our stage for two days of presentations and practical and theoretical exercises. Teateralliansen is a theatre alliance supporting actors in finding ways to ensure they have different courses and skill development to stay consistent with the changing markets. Nicklas has over 15 years of experience working with Goodbye Kansas and many others in the industry, making him one of the most knowledgeable stunt performers to learn from! 🔥 Photographs by Elias Holm. #mocap #performancecapture #stockholm

Metro Awakening transports you to 2028, where the subways beneath Moscow contain survivors of a nuclear Armageddon… We were so happy to collaborate with Vertigo Games for this virtual reality adventure game, recording final performance capture on our #motioncapture soundstage in Stockholm. We also cast several final game characters and provided voice-over and ADR services across multiple sessions. Grab your gas mask and experience this supernatural, story-driven journey by Dmitry Glukhovsky amidst overpowering radiation and deadly threats hiding inside the Metro. Congratulations to Vertigo Games, and here are a few #BTS images from our stockholm studio… Available to play via PlayStation VR2, #MetaQuest and SteamVR.  Have you played it yet? Let us know! #gaming #virtualreality

We were thrilled that two of our incredible team members were invited as speakers for KIND OF ART 2024 🔥 Our first speaker was Facial Modeler Charlotte Van Hulle, presenting ´The Faces We Make—a Junior Artist’s Introduction to Facial Modelling´. Charlotte introduced the discipline of facial modelling and guided the audience through what the facial pipeline looks like at Goodbye Kansas. She explored the journey of a face model from raw scan data to a polished rig capturing the nuances of facial muscle movement. Our second speaker was Senior Rigger Stephanie Holder, presenting ´Bugging Out: #Rigging a Beetle for the Total War Pharaoh Cinematic´🪲. Stephanie explored GBK's approach to rigging, animating the scarab beetle and its dung ball and discussing the importance of quality references and tight feedback loops between departments. Their audience members showed genuine interest in both topics and had some fantastic questions to answer! It's also always a pleasure to speak with clients and peers who expressed their love for working with us, which we truly appreciate! ❤️ Charlotte and Stephanie were thrilled to talk to many students who were interested in working with Goodbye Kansas and reviewed portfolios at their request! 🔥 Have you been to KOA yet? If not, we hope to see you again next year! 💪 #KOA #kindofart #vfx #3dmodeling #rigging
