This is the newest fake VFX company from scam artist, Caesar Collazo, which is most likely his real name but no one can be sure. He recently shut his last company down (Merlin VFX as Merlin Malory) after he scammed a few people and got bad public reviews on Yelp and RipOffReport - his photo is on Yelp. He offers to do work for very low cost, takes your money upfront and your hard drive and then never delivers and disappears.
His website says copyright 2012 but was only registered and created as of Aug 1 2018. His "reel" was uploaded Sept 19th and uses other companies' work - he downloads VFX breakdowns from Youtube and reuploads them on his Youtube page with his company's logo watermarked on them - he has done this for all of his fake companies. He also adds major studio credits to his IMDB page. He has also recently changed his headquarters location to Stockholm, Sweden and provides details on the building he allegedly occupies there - this is to try and add legitimacy to his company. Don't be fooled. He's a scumbag scam artist.
BEWARE.

Below is a video of the actual Con Man using Edison Carter as his name / who currently known and using Robert Trubiano from Enkel VFX.
His real / birth name is Caesar Manuel Collazo born in Cook County / Chicago IL on October 1st 1967!
He tends to let people believe that he is much younger as well, especially women!
In the video he is using Edison Carter from Wardour Studios ( he used to be listed on their website as the Chairman. That company still today under "new" leadership is using the same Imbd credits etc that all the previous companies such as Gimzi Studios, AIO Studios and Quidam Studios used in their Imbd reels and other online medias as well.
After the video link are 2 additional Yelp complaints, for the Con-Man listed under different companies.
Clearly showing that he has been doing the same thing that is mentioned in this overall report for years!
