Who are we?

Brent Heyning [imdb] is the principal creative director at Toyshoppe. Brent's media bio is extensive; shots from some of the films he has worked on are included below, including scenes from XMEN3, AI, Matrix, Team America: World Police and a slew of other films not listed on IMDB. Producers do not always credit those building visual effects; our team has taken to creating its own media projects from scratch and crediting all creatives as partners in our process. From art installations to independent films and events we are consistently creating new works. We believe in keeping the inventive spirit alive in everything we do.

Other pros in the Toyshoppe Box include principals from four design houses, lighting teams, architects and 3D display gurus. Through our extensive work with artists and designers in Black Rock City we can bring extraordinary new ideas to the big screen with great ease. We're bridgebuilders at heart and we dream big.
