Everything about M5 Industries totally explained
M5 Industries (
M5i) is a visual effects company located in
San Francisco,
California whose primary focus is
special effects props for
commercials and
film,
stop motion animation, and
animatronic puppets. They also extend into prototype development and various display projects.
M5 Industries has produced special effects for many commercials, such as a motorized
7 Up machine that shoots soda cans at people and a remote-controlled shoe for
Nike. The company's previous works date back to
The Right Stuff (1983).
The company was founded by
Jamie Hyneman, co-host of
MythBusters with
Adam Savage on the
Discovery Channel. Many of the people depicted on
MythBusters were originally employees of M5. The show itself used to be taped primarily in the M5 shop, but space constraints have forced much of the work and taping of
MythBusters to be held in a separate annex of M5, called
M7.
The name M5 is a
misnomer. The company was originally intended to be named after
Q Branch which provided
James Bond with his gadgets in the movies.
