  • Fact Check: UFO spotted hovering between mountains in Russia? Nope, it's just VFX Did soldiers on a Russian military helicopter spot a UFO? India Today found that an American VFX artist created this video. Listen to Story India Today Fact Check This video was created by VFX artist Colton Kirkegaard using Unreal Engine 4. An unidentified flying object hovering over the Russian island of Sakhalin was allegedly captured on video and that clip is now being shared on social media. The video allegedly captured from a Russian military helicopter shows a disc-like object can be seen flying over a mountainous area. A Twitter user shared the video and wrote, “Russia's Sakhalin has a lot of undeveloped land, so UFO resource exploration is prosperous. A Russian military helicopter captured a UFO over Sakhalin, Russia.” The archived version of this post can be seen here. India Today found that the viral video was created using visual effects by an artist called Colton Kirkegaard. Our Probe Responding to the viral tweet, a person said that this video was created by a special effects artist called Colton Kirkegaard. We found Kirkegaard’s Instagram account and there we found the viral video shared on March 6, 2021. The video contained the watermark of his Tik Tok account “@coltonkirk.mov”. We found this video on the TikTok account as well. The Instagram post’s caption read: “I’ve been noticing this video I made has been making the rounds being shared online outside of my TikTok page as of late (zero credit given to me of course). Pretty proud of it though, just crossed the 1.1M views mark too! Also fully rendered in Unreal Engine 4.” Unreal Engine 4 is an advanced real-time 3D creation tool. Kirkegaard is a VFX artist based in Los Angeles, US, who has worked on feature films for studios like Disney, Sony, Universal/Amblin, Playtone, and Warner Bros. He often shares similar computer-generated videos of UFOs on Instagram. India Today has reached out to him and the story will be updated when he responds. Earlier, another video created by him had gone viral as a UFO sighted in Antarctica. At the time also, fact-checkers had debunked the claim.
