Filmgate is one of the nominees for the 2011 Guldbagge Award. Håkan Blomdahl and Tor-Björn Olsson are nominated for the best visual effects in Kronjuvelerna (The Crown Jewels). Filmgate provided the production with a 3D goldfish, matte paintings, jumping hockey players and much much more fun stuff.  Filmgate also provided on set supervision.

The Guldbagge Award is an official Swedish film award awarded annually since 1964 by the Swedish Film Institute. In June 2011 the board of the Swedish Film Institute decided to adopt new regulations and accepted Best Visual Effects as one of the additional award categories. Thus, this is the first time in the Guldbagge's history when the Best Visual Effects category is running for the award, and Filmgate feel very proud to be one of the first three nominees selected for the prize.

Kronjuvelerna is nominated in 5 categories (Best visual effects, Best costume, Best make up, Best music, Best set design) for the 2011 Guldbagge Awards, and Filmgate would like to congratulate all the candidates and wish them luck!
