Visual Effects and such

A thing I learned about this article is that the Life of Pi won the oscar for best visual effects. Another thing that I learned is that the studio that made the visual effects for the movie is now facing bankruptcy. I also learned that many people have changed their profile pictures on social networking sites to support the company thats failing. A thing I liked about this article is that it shows how sad it is that a company that did such a great job on a movie is now failing. A thing I didn't like about the article is that it was sort of boring. A question I have about the article is how is this company struggling so bad?
