Founded by filmmaker Peter Jackson, Weta Ltd. has two divisions - Weta Digital and Weta Workshop, both located in Wellington, New Zealand.

On the digital side, Weta has blown away the world with their spectacular images, especially with 1996's amazing THE FRIGHTENERS, a 570-shot visual extravaganza featuring a great deal of CG animation and creative compositing. THE FRIGHTENERS won a 1996 VFX HQ Award for Best Visual Effects Surprise.

Weta also provided visual imagery for The Ride sequence in 1997's CONTACT. The Weta Workshop is a creature workshop that has provided makeup and puppet effects for TV's "Hercules" and "Xena" and Jackson's own HEAVENLY CREATURES.
