It's Easy To Create Something

Boy, Am I Glad There Wasn't A Fourth Episode Of Lord Of The Rings.

Human Beings Are Really Attuned To Their Senses. When You Work In Film, You Are Working With The Visual And Audio Senses. An Understanding Of Tactile And Other Components That Go Into The Creation Of Those Objects Are Important To Making Them Look Real On Screen, Like A Plasma Of Energy.

It's Easy To Create Something That Has A Lot Of Luster, But It's Very Hard To Make Something That Has A Lot Of Depth.

I Think That Era Of Mechanically Figuring Out Of How To Bring A Particular Evocative Image To The Screen Was A Really Important Part Of My Education.

With The Advent Of Digital Imaging I Made The Transition From Trying To Figure Out How To Do Things To Creating Objects, Characters And The Whole Cloth. It Kind Of Freed Up The Analytical Part Of My Brain And I Had The Opportunity To Use More Of The Creative Side Of My Brain For How Things Interact With Light And Integrate Into Stories.
