It was a DAVE day out on March 31st at Universal™ Cinemark at CityWalk! DAVE School rented out two theaters for our Visual Effects and Game Production students for a private showing of Godzilla vs. Kong which released the same day. Two DAVE School graduates worked on lighting for the film for company MPC. The graduates were LinFan Liu and Jeremy Brouwer (2018). They worked predominantly on the Tokyo scenes. You can watch the movie now in theaters or on HBO Max!
