General info :
Mass. Illusion operated as a special-effects house owned by Cinergy, an independent movie studio, originally known as Cinergi F/X.
By 1997, Cinergy needed to sell Mass.Illusion for financial reasons, and began looking for investors to buy the company. Mass. Illusion had $1 million in debt, but had assets including artists and a $7.5 million contract to produce What Dreams May Come special effects. It had also submitted well-received test shots for The Matrix. In 1997 Cinergi was acquired by Disney and Cinergi pulled out of Mass. Illusion.
The company was rescued from liquidation by the Columbus, Ohio based company Manchester Exchange & Investment Company Inc, or Manex, with Manex agreeing to assume the firm's debt. Robert Bobo began running the company in November 1997.
In 1998 it was again renamed, this time to Manex Visual Effects, headed by managing director Robert Bobo.
