As of right now there's a featured video on the main YouTube page... It's an ad for New Zealand (part of the 100% New Zealand ad campaign) and above it it says "The latest from Weta Digital, the makers of Lord of the Rings & King Kong"... On the first few frames there are credits and at the bottom, rather randomly, it says "NEIL FINN STUDIOS". What's this about? Some kind of in-joke? You can see the video here if it's no longer on the main YouTube home page.

I haven't watched the ad, but there was some controversy over it in NZ. The tourist board chose to revamp it, and used a song written in Germany and recently a hit for an Australian band - this was seen by some as inappropriate for the campaign. The song in the ad was recorded by NZ band Pluto, at Neil's Roundhead Studios. The song used previously was of course Don't Dream It's Over - but you probably knew that Wink
