OK great, thanks, this has been amended to be “Weta”. However it now says “Weta Workshop” instead of “Weta Digital”. Weta Workshop is a small company specialising in practical effects, including mainly prosthetics, and physical props. Its sister company is the much larger Weta Digital, a world-leading visual effects company. They are both based in Miramar, Wellington, New Zealand. Weta Digital was involved in the making of the BFG, not Weta Workshop. Both companies have borrowed their name from the Māori word for the large insect as in my last comment (and both companies use the insect in their logos).

In reply to mutyala.

Good to know, but it’s also a SFX studio: http://wetaworkshop.com/

Weta is a Māori word, not an acronym and therefore should not be capitalised. It is the name of the world’s largest insect, and also the Māori “god of ugly things”.
